An early supergroup borne out of the prolific Munich scene fronted by American-German Klaus Ebert featuring studio musician Keith Forsey on drums (Hallelujah/Amon Düül II), bass genius Lothar Meid (Amon Düül II), Jörg Evers (guitar) from Embryo.
The idea behind 18 Karat Gold seems to have been to present Krautrock in a commercial dilute form to the pop public.
Much of the time 18 Karat Gold made their living by working as pop singer Peter Maffay's backing band. Their sole album contained a few minor surprises.

3. Flying - 5:18
4. Goldrush - 2:57

6. Dr.Stein (5%) - 3:47
