Chuck asks about:

> "Made In Germany" and "Still Alive" (I think that's the right

_Almost Alive_?  Quite nice, but it has the cleaner, later, sound (like,
_HiJack_ or _Pyragony X_) rather than the spacier early sound most fans
prefer.  _Made in Germany_ is a concept album (be still my beating
heart!) about being German - some very good stuff, it's rather a
transitional album form the earlier to later sound.  Has one of my
favourite lyrics: "Crawl round the blue grotto/Arm in arm with brother
Otto").

_Dance of the Lemmings_?  Brilliant, essential!

>   When was "Carnival In Babylon" released?

1972.
