my vote for their Magnum Opus is: Yeti

you have here - speaking vinyl now, don't know what the CD's looks like -
not only a double album with one LP containing heavy krautrock, and one
containing long improvisations - you have also the Hawk connection Dave
Anderson, and the more weaker BOC connection of a cover art that *might*
help you remember the "Don't Fear the Reaper" track.

The "Soap Shop Rock" is an Amon Düül all time winner.
