It’s really amazing that interstellar overdrive came out 3 years before this though. I think Pink Floyd and Amon Düül II are the two best psychedelic bands ever. Capture it so perfectly. New band wise the best psych band is pond, their earlier work is like piper and yeti and they are my favorite psych band / favorite band in general ever. Talking 60’s & 70’s psych though Pink Floyd & Amon Düül II are the winners
They took the last three improvisations off Yeti on Spotify but the rest of the album is still available. Really weird, guess I’ll just have to come to this playlist for the last three tracks 😭
Totally brilliant.. one of my departed uncle's favorite artists and always among my own top spacers. ..rather melancholic for me listening to this now, but it's even more awesome now with the jolly, drunken, spaced-out memories it stirred. ;)
18 minutes,plus two more extended Jams on this album one of which is 6 minutes and one of which is 9 minutes long. Pretty sure least 40% of this album is just doodling like this and I'm definitely not complaining. Amon Düül ii were good at that.
@@WocklessGamingforAnimeMomsfor sure they were good at jamming, and surprisingly the first 2 sides of structured song were amazing too. The jamming is like phallus dei but less tribal.
The genius is still out of the mainstream, the crap is still on television. Amon Duul wasn't on American Bandstand, things aren't different, you just have to know where to listen. Look for the band Grails for new stuff that has an equally open minded feel.
Incroyable Amon Duul 2 a vraiment rencontré le Yeti à travers cette musique baroque folle surrealiste Psychédélique.... Masterpiece inégalé et inegalable.. Euh il parait que le Yeti rencontre un Yogi dans le morceau suivant 😜
I think it was similar to earlier hippy music which unlike later Eurometal was generally socially progressive and generally about _being yourself_ and _letting anyone join in_ but in terms of the musical concepts it doesn't have the same ideas about musical warmth that American Pop Music or Country has. Culturally I'm not sure it's something that would exist now because we have qb easier time translating ideas etc.
@@duvadjidgo9625yeti is better than phallus dei but let’s not be silly wolf city is the most perfect fusion of not only psych and kraut but of prog too. The only album ever to flawlessly mix prog psych and krautrock.

Wow. 40 years ago we had a bumper crop of geniuses making highly intelligent music. Now we're stuck with a cabal of "American Idol" wannabes making painfully and embarrasingly dumb music. But thankfully, recordings of the good stuff (such as this) still exist. PRAISE JESUS!
Saucerful has always sounded very krautrock to me in certain areas, sometimes I believe it truly was the first krautrock record without being German!! So in that case it wouldn’t be krautrock but stylistically sounds a lot like the German movement.
Well yeah, thanks and kudoes to the bandmembers for gracing us with so much amazing music. But at the heart of it all I still thank Jesus (the Son of God) and God the Father/Creator for creating life and for creating humans, among whom are the various members of Amon Duul II and also for creating sounds, which can be fashioned into music. And I'm a pretty left-wing guy myself BTW.
When you talk like that it sounds right wing lmao surprised to see ur left wing. Personally I’m neither because both are shit but where ya standing now?
First of all, I'm thankful to Jesus that this music exists. Secondly, I'm thankful that I'm able to hear and listen to it. Thirdly, it is God (and Jesus is God come to us in the flesh--God the Son in the Trinity) who gave us brains in the first place, as well as creativity and imagination.
