AMON DÜÜL II: YETI
After their stunning Phallus Dei debut album, Amon Düül II could only up the ante with the voluminous Yeti album, a double disc affair that was filled with a live jam for the duration of one disc. A masterpiece of Krautrock, treading the line between improvised jams and well thought-out composistions - and even finding time for some more conventional songwriting to provide a balance.
