The Crazy World of Arthur Brown - 2013.08.17 Finkenbach

The Recording (~5 m from stage center) has some distortion at the low end but it very clear and it rocks!

The Crazy World were a great band and especially the guitar player showed: you can play great without noodling (sorry Lance Lopez & Birth Control: Nina Gromniak - along with Guru Guru's Roland Schaeffer and Hans Reffert - was much better!)


Some irritating facts:
- The new song "Sim Sam Sim" is an almost 1:1 rip-off of "Jockey full of Bourbon" by Tom Waits
- was it something with my ears or was something completely wrong in "Love the Spirit"?
- they did not play "come and buy"!!!
