Well there's basically 18 minutes of that track on the second side of the "Spirit of Peace" album.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Wednesday, 11 July 2018 21:24 (five years ago) link
love the sound of that
― global tetrahedron, Wednesday, 11 July 2018 21:27 (five years ago) link
Also "Brüder des Schattens – Söhne des Lichts" and "Die Nacht der Seele" albums.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Wednesday, 11 July 2018 21:32 (five years ago) link
also there's probably a lot of roy montgomery albums you would enjoy

i’ve dabbled in him but didnt find anything i really loved right off the bat like this. i like the syncopated guitar parts and the trance-like feel. i’m all ears for recommendations though!
― global tetrahedron, Wednesday, 11 July 2018 22:23 (five years ago) link
I think the music on side two of Spirit of Peace IS King Minos II
― com rad erry red flag (f. hazel), Thursday, 12 July 2018 00:10 (five years ago) link
it definitely is- more layers and stuff obviously. love it
― global tetrahedron, Thursday, 12 July 2018 01:53 (five years ago) link
Same track yes, if not the same recording, which is why putting it as a bonus track on "Einsjager" and calling it "King Minos II" makes no sense.

new vinyl box. looks nice. 'Affenstunde' (1970), 'Hosianna Mantra' (1972), 'Einsjäger & Siebenjäger' (1974), 'Aguirre' (1976), 'Nosferatu' (1978) 2LP.
― koogs, Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:00 (five years ago) link
ooh, tempted to splurge on that. wonder how many volumes there'll be?
― kolarov spring (NickB), Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:12 (five years ago) link
weird selection!
― valet doberman (Jon not Jon), Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:32 (five years ago) link
is it a weird selection? not that I'm saying you're wrong but from a purely personal and subjective point of view Affenstunde' (1970), 'Hosianna Mantra' (1972), 'Einsjäger & Siebenjäger' (1974), 'Aguirre' (1976) are the classic PV albums
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:41 (five years ago) link
That is indeed personal and subjective.
― Do you like 70s hard rock with a guitar hero? (Tom D.), Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:43 (five years ago) link
They’re all classic but those are a weird combo imo I guess they wanted a blend of PV styles in the box?
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:44 (five years ago) link
I think they managed that!
― Do you like 70s hard rock with a guitar hero? (Tom D.), Thursday, 11 April 2019 21:45 (five years ago) link
Definitely managed that
― valet doberman (Jon not Jon), Thursday, 11 April 2019 22:06 (five years ago) link
Does anyone know what the bonus tracks are. Also, I never previously knew there was a 2LP version of Nosferatu. How is that?
― stirmonster, Thursday, 11 April 2019 22:59 (five years ago) link
iirc the 2nd LP is "On The Way To A Little Way"?

Bruder des Schattens is the rejected soundtrack and On the way... is the one that was actually used in the film iirc?

Phew, what a relief. And what a guitar player!

incredibly gifted player. been on a popol vuh marathon all day and his guitar parts in particular are making my spirit soar

OMFG I have a google alert to prevent scares of this kind and received no alert about his passing so PHEW!!!!Amazing drummer as well. His sonic sensibility is so great imo.

you can hear that fur collar on Einsjäger if you listen carefully
― Brad C., Wednesday, 15 January 2020 03:56 (four years ago) link
pains me to say this but strict quarantine is a pretty great time to sink into some popol vuh eh?
my PV google alert yielded a quarantine "what are you listening to?" and i gotta say, this guy is otm! http://www.brooklynvegan.com/heres-what-brian-cook-russian-circles-sumac-is-listening-to-in-isolation/
i have listened to my two personal faves while walking with my dogs, a time-honored activity that always makes me feel good :)
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 25 March 2020 17:55 (four years ago) link
I don't think I've ever considerd listening to Popol Vuh while standing up let alone walking.

that's a cover that i would probably recognize in like 3 notes and embarrass myself by yelling
i love to listen to popol vuh while walking but i also love walking

what are your two personal fav PV records ?
― budo jeru, Wednesday, 25 March 2020 18:16 (four years ago) link
also shouting things that you should feel embarrassed about is standard protocol at union pool iirc
― budo jeru, Wednesday, 25 March 2020 18:17 (four years ago) link
If I had to just go by the ones I choose to listen to the most, it's easy Letzte Tage – Letzte NächteHerz Au Glas/Heart of Glass
Runners up: Einsjäger und Siebenjäger Agape-Agape
I haven't met one I didn't like but those are my personal faves
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 25 March 2020 18:19 (four years ago) link
Forgot about Seligpreisung That one is really good too, second tier
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 25 March 2020 18:29 (four years ago) link
I love Seligpresung! "Selig sind die Sanftmütigen", especially if you play the whole album to build up to it, is one of the most joyous affirmations in song I've ever heard.
― avellano medio inglés (f. hazel), Wednesday, 25 March 2020 19:09 (four years ago) link
yeah and it’s rather nice to hear florian sing

since we're probably all trapped inside, I'll post another entry in my Popol Vuh travelogue from January 2019... listening to Die Nächt der Seele while hiking the Halemau'u Trail in Haleakelā National Park in Maui, and then pausing above the cloud deck over Ke'anae Valley, listening to Morgengruß:

I think "Wo bist Du, der Du überwunden hast?" from Die Nacht der Seele is the best hiking jam of all time
