Re-issue on CD in digisleeve (eco pack) with an 8page booklet & liner notes, recorded live @ the Fabrik club, Hamburg 1973-1975, lovingly remastered

After three very successful studio albums and a live double LP, Frumpy disbanded in 1972. Singer and frontwoman Inga Rumpf, keyboardist Jean Jacques Kravetz and bassist Karl-Heinz Schott continued as Atlantis. Frank Diez joined as new guitarist and former Emergency drummer Curt Cress replaced Carsten Bohn, who had been with the band during the successful Frumpy days.

The self-titled debut album, which Atlantis recorded at London's Island Studios, sold well in the United States, where Frumpy's blues-oriented voice was appreciated. After recording, Diez and Cress left the band. Udo Lindenberg and Cravinkel's guitarist George Meier filled in for a tour with Traffic and Procol Harum.

From then on, Atlantis went through constant personnel changes, but this did not detract from the band's steadily growing commercial success. Albums like 'It's Getting Better' (1973), 'Ooh, Baby' (1974) or 'Get On Board' (1975) are milestones in German rock history. In January 1976 Rumpf and Schott announced the breakup of the band.

The album 'Live' consists of concert recordings, which were all recorded between 1973 and 1975 at the Fabrik in Hamburg. It was released in 1975 as a double vinyl edition in a gatefold cover on the Vertigo label. A great live document that once again demonstrated the extraordinary musical presence of these five exceptional musicians (Rumpf, Bohn, Askew, Conti, Schott).
