Was ein wirklicher Auto-Freak ist, hat jetzt Spiegel Online aufgedeckt. Das ist jemand, der beispielsweise einen 6,2 Liter großen V12 Motor aus einem Lamborghini Murciélago samt Allradgetriebe, Bremssystem und Sechsgang-Schaltgetriebe in einen Fiat 500 aus dem Jahr 1971 einbaut. Kein verspäteter Aprilscherz wie die Bilder beweisen. Und das Beste: Der kleine Oldtimer mit seinem nun 580 PS starken Triebwerk fährt sogar ohne zu mucken. Vorerst nur getestet auf einer Rennstrecke, doch die beiden Enthusiasten - der 55jährige Werkstattbesitzer Gianfranco Dini und sein 27 Jahre alter Sohn Leonardo - sind sich sicher, schon bald eine Straßenzulassung für das kleine „Monster
"the trip", like all the other songs from our album "first",recorded 1971 by Conny Plank for PILZ-records (now available as CD on ohrwaschl-records), was our "real krautrock"-song.
never it was the same song twice; we totally improvised it each time we played it. only structured thing was the guitar melody-theme from Harald Thoma and me singing along with it.(find out, when you hear it live 1991 )

unfortunately Harald Thoma doesn´t appear in this video, because he was about to get draughted by the army and our manager replaced him with the red-haired Jürgen Schneider. Short time after that we fired the manager and brought back Harald Thoma to the band.
The sound you hear is the original line-up:
Andreas Cornelius - drums; Joachim Schiff - bass; Harald Thoma - guitar,vocals; Rainer Wahlmann - vox, harp

1971, beside the LP "first" dies irae recorded at the same day also two songs for the PILZ-records Sampler "Heavy Christmas"; "silent night" was recorded in one take live;
before recording "shepherd´s song" Conny Plank took a long break to mix a Kraftwerk-concert in the Hamburg Markthalle. When he returned he brought a lot of friends with him and up in smoke we went
- that night we really forgot to record the 6 minutes jazzy part of the song; the only thing left is a real strange final chorus, that everybody in the studio at that time( about 3 a.m) who joined in spontaneously
the next morning we departed for our hometown. all I remember is:
It´s been a fucking great real jazzy number, ...that we forgot to record...
