17 HIPPIES PLAY GUITAR

2006

This 2006 album documents an experiment that went very right! When our favourite guitarist Marc Ribot liked the idea of joining us on stage for a show in Cologne, a dream came true. Alongside our friend Jakob Ilja of “Element of Crime”, who had played with us on many occasions, we rocked the house at the “Stadtgarten”. Recorded live by the WDR (German public radio).
