This is the faster of two lists compiled from albums that I and other Stanford University students at Stanford In Germany listened to in the Summer and Fall of 1971. Note: the “Fußweg” is the German word for footpath, and refers to a path we all took from our campus atop a vineyard down to the Beutelsbach train station below; so a Fußwog is a wog up or down the Fußweg! Also, “Schneller” means “faster.”)
