Agitation Free was a German experimental krautrock band, formed in 1967 by Michael "Fame" Günther (bass guitar), Lutz "Lüül" Ulbrich (guitar), Lutz Ludwig Kramer (guitar) and Christopher Franke (drums). They were initially called Agitation, a name they chose at random from a dictionary. The band had to change the name because another band with the same name already existed. Agitation Free was chosen as the result of a panel before a free show played in the early 1970s saying "Agitation Free" (meaning "free concert").〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Agitation+Free )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=627 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/agitation-free-mn0000600485/discography )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/agitation-free/id284091993 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.last.fm/music/Agitation+Free )〕 ==History== After losing guitarist Axel Genrich to Guru Guru in 1970 (Genrich having replaced Kramer the same year) and drummer Franke to Tangerine Dream in 1971, the band recruited Jörg "Joshi" Schwenke (guitar), Burghard Rausch (drums) and Michael Hoenig (keyboards). They released their first album, ''Malesch'', in 1972 on the Music Factory label. The album was inspired by their tour through Egypt, Greece and Cyprus, sponsored by the German Goethe Institute. Later that year, they performed at the 1972 Munich Olympics. A second album was released in 1973, and guitarist Schwenke was replaced first by Stefan Diez, then Gustl Lutjens. The band disbanded in 1974. Agitation Free reunited in 1998, with the 1974 line-up, and released ''River of Return'' in 1999. The band again reformed in 2007 for a series of concerts in Tokyo. In 2008, remastered CDs of their back catalogue were officially released, and in 2011 they released ''Shibuya Nights'', recorded at their 2007 Tokyo concerts. In 2012, the band toured again to promote this album. The band is included on the Nurse with Wound list. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Agitation Free」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
