The broadcast started with Schwebebahn. Compared to the version on the 'Live - Traumstadt'-CD, this one tends to sound
a bit more agressive. After the intro, this new version gets an electronic rhythm, which fits perfectly in the music,
which was in places often a bit trance-inducing. In the new version of 'Schwebebahn' this is perhaps a bit emphasized,
not only through the electronic beats, but also through the piano, which sounds more agressive than the electric piano
used on 'Live - Traumstadt'. The electronic bits are not heard throughout the song, but the return some time before the
finale. The whole song is stretched a bit, so it lasts for almost 10 minutes. The next song is probably my favorite
Hoelderlin-song. 'Rare bird' was never played live by the original line-up. This live-version is at places more
agressive. I have toe get used to the vocals from Ann-yi Eötvos, who in the refrains is joined by Hans Bäär, which
is a nice touch. The soprano-saxophone from the original is replaced by violin and guitar and later the violin takes
of for a short period. In the end the refrain is sung repeatedly and the keyboard-player takes also part in the
vocal harmonies. The more I hear this song, the more I start to love this new version.
It's follewed by the only new song of this set, entitled 'Come to me' and if this is a taste of the things to come,
I really look forward to hear more of it. New singer Ann-yi Eötvos really shows here talent here. It's the shortest
song, but that isn't what counts. The group shows they can still do stuff which doesn't sound out of place between
the old songs. The broadcast closes with 'Sun rays', which is another old song. It starts a bit subdued and gets to
a heavy climax, after wich there is a short period of quietness, before the song reaches its final climax. The group
is still playing with fire and doesn't sound like they are just trying to relive the old times. They still sound like
they are passionate about their music and are willing to try to gain new fans instead of just giving the old fans a
blast from the past. They are defenitly more than just a nostalgia-act.
