Faust live are always more event than gig and recordings struggle to capture that experience. This release documents the band before an audience of friends, fellow artists and fans from all over Europe at last year’s Avant Garde Festival – held quite literally in co-founder Peron’s back yard. A friendly audience yes, but one not easily impressed. Faust did not disappoint! From the spontaneous vocal improvisation during the soundcheck (preserved here as track one), through walkabout serenading of Peron’s beloved pig with firework backing, painting and power tools amongst the crowd, to the blistering performance of the anthemic “Krautrock” this soon joined the list of legendary shows for this most legendary of bands. For those not fortunate enough to have been present, these cds, housed in an lp-style gatefold sleeve complete with inner sleeves and lavishly illustrated with photos from the weekend, is the next best thing. As a bonus, and continuing the theme of collaboration from last year’s Disconnected and Fini! releases, the last track exclusively presents the finale of Nurse With Wound’s festival set and features Jean-Hervé Peron and Steven Stapleton duetting on “Rock ‘n’ Roll Session”.
