s/d popol vuh

listening to Letzte Tage-Letzte Nachte this morning btw. not one i reach for often because of its more rock nature, but it is sounding croissantastic right now. is that Gila album good? i've never heard it.

Yes, it is. I do prefer the "rock" PV albums to the soundtracks and synth epics, though.

yeah, i think i'm coming around on the more rock stuff more and more.

the end of Letzte Tage-Letzte Nachte's title track kinda sounds like the Dead.

Letzte Tage-Letzte Nachte is my favorite Popol Vuh. LOVE that album!

And I hope it never gets remastered because I love that muddy sound, whether intentional or not. :)

deplorable lack of PV on Spotify, but at least they have Tantric Songs, which I haven't heard elsewhere

xp - oh god me too
and the cover is one of my favorite album covers of all time

it is funny, whenever i start playing popol vuh record, i think, "man, they should have recorded this better," but by the end of it, i do not think that at all. <3 the mud!

damn it, the only Gila album I can find on mog

https://search.mog.com/v2/albums/38135579/image.jpeg?size=800

it's probably pretty good tho, right?

LT-LN is not as muddy on the Spalax CD as it is on the SPV CD.

I like Herz aus Glas a wee bit more than LT-LN if truth be told. It's kind of perfect. LT-LN doesn't quite live up to 'Grosse Krieger' IMO.

The Gila album (Wounded Knee, not the one above) is definitely worth owning. It's not going to overhaul your world but it's good.

still don't have this oop pv album but someone put the whole thing on yootoob

I've never been able to decide which one I like better. Every time I think it's one, the other one comes along and ~whoa~

I think I consider my 2nd fave PV album to be Bruder des Schattens aka the alternate version of Nosferatu. When I want innigkeit piano chamber Vuh. LT-LN coming in a close 3rd.

still think this is the high point of their rock side

See what I want is a whole album of track 1 of Einsjager... that's pure guitar bliss right there

^^^^^

All my student neighbors are still gone for the break, so the other night I was playing Bruder des Schattens, Aguirre, and Das Hohelied Salomons really loud.

You know how to live!

I really like their rockin' stuff; it has this regal majestic flavor to it that is irresistible.

I think right now Hosianna Mantra and Seligpreisung are my favorite Popol Vuh records. I've been listening to them on the 45 minute drive to work as the sun is coming up and Oklahoma is frozen, it's nice.

^^ that sounds wonderful

two things:

* i have some croissants in the oven (just the rise-overnight kind, nothing fancy) and they smell divine.
* there's a goofy women's dance party thing that i dj'ed yesterday, and we have to do a warm-up and cool-down song and i chose "sing, for song drives away the wolves" as my cool down song -- i looked around the hot hot hot dance studio and there was stretching, meditating, yoga, eyes closed, eyes open. perfect and totally heavenly.

every time I see this thread I think of Kevin Federline's "Popozao"

you know, in Portuguese, it means bring your ass, on the floor and move it real fast

haha
i shoulda put that on my dance mix

u should use http://www.discogs.com/Popol-Vuh-Yoga/release/799452

yknow, i don't have that one!
i knew i bumped this thread for a reason.

pv is gonna help this apartment get clean

Yoga's not an official release, Fricke disowned it... still worth a listen.

Not really Popol Vuh though

the cover art for In Den Garten Pharaohs always astounds me - the design looks so modern, like it's from a 2008 reissue

I'm on the train right now on my way to purchase, for better or worse, an Affenstunde reissue. I figure that's all that'll be left for nonmillionaires at some pt anyway. It's under $25.

It's dusk and the light is beautiful outside the train window. The woman next to me is wrapped in a plush blanket with cartoon bunnies and deer on it.

you are an odd bird LL

a beautiful bird of paradise

np at my desk: T Dream, Sorcerer sdtrk. Close enough.

You should get an affenpinscher to go with your affenstunde!

Thanks to my extensive AKC research as a child, I know what an affenpinscher is, and they are v cute.
They're like mini-yetis.

Also once I dressed up as a bluebird of paradise for Halloween so at the risk of sounding immodest, clouds otm ;)

hallo!

have we posted this milan show?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyEHm-rEMJ0
what's the deal? is it actually popol vuh? someone upthread made the claim it was not. what the vuh?

In 1975 they visited again Italy for a concert at the University ‘La Statale’ of Milan, somewhere in september. The concert was promoted by the 'Gong' magazine (a magazine about progressive-experimental rock), after R.U. Kaiser established an agreement with the PDU label for licensing the Ohr/Pilz/DKK records in Italy.
The concert was opened by a very young Roberto Cacciapaglia, who played a part of 'Sonanze'. For this occasion Popol Vuh consisted of: Florian Fricke (piano and voice), Daniel Fichelscher (guitars) and Renate Knaup (vocals and percussion).
There exists a tape/bootleg from this concert.

ooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo that sounds good

p.v. comes in just before the 14 min mark of that vid. before that is the cacciapaglia piece

ah gotcha. yeah this is good, though the recording is not perfect.

the end is ... funky? is that still them?

actually that sounds like more cacciapaglia. the boot mp3s i have only go to about 45 min mark hmm

that might make more sense (though i don't really know what cacciapaglia is supposed to sound like).

The sound is abysmal but it's worth a listen.

he sounds like this
