Live 1972/1974
Bassist Uli Trepte was one of the founders of the seminal space rock Krautrock group Guru Guru, and this CD, a reissue of a United Dairies LP with the track “Bo Diddley” added, combines material from Trepte‘s tenure with Guru Guru and some studio stuff done soon after he left the band. The two Guru Guru tracks were recorded live in 1972, and the performances on these long jams, capturing the group at their height, make up for the mediocre fidelity of the recordings.

Live In Wiesbaden 1972/73
In 1972 Guru Guru played the Wiesbaden Concert Hall where Neumeier, guitarist Ax Genrich and bassist Bruno Schaab (who had recently replaced Uli Trepte) let loose on one of their most classic tracks, the a 37-minute freakout “Ooga Booga”. In 1973 the discerning folks of Wiesbaden again invited Guru Guru to play, and this time the band—now featuring the formidable Hans Hartmann (arguably Guru Guru’s best in a long line of bass players)—regaled fans with tracks from their recently released …
