A few days later, they travelled to Germany to play at Cologne s Progressive Pop Festival. Appearing late in the afternoon of the second day, they performed a mixture of psychedelic folk, pop and rock, clearly pointing the way towards their huge success later in the year. Their complete set, broadcast on WDR-FM, is presented here together with background notes and images. SIDE ONE
