Cloud Nine & The Vitamin C - Evolution of a psychedelic Band (4) (GER.)

Time for the 4th part of my feature about the german psychedelic rock band CLOUD NINE & THE VITAMIN C. This gig was recorded in a rather small venue at an University Art Festival at the "Alte Universität", Heidelberg, May 24, 1989. It was the first time of only two occasions the band was supported by substitute drummer (and multi-instrumentalist) Daniel P. Caesar. It's a rather strong performance: the playing is well done and the sound is quite good. And it's – for better or worse – a straight forward issue, less experimental than some other performances.

Highlights probably the blues song "Death Blues" with its arabian middle part and D. Engel's sad hommage "Sing A Song" to some of the lost heroes of the past...

(The picture shows l. to r.: Mike Schroeder: bs, voc, Dominik Engel: voc., keyb., CK: lightshow, Peter Schupp: g. – Daniel P. Caesar (dr.) is not shown.)
