Audio recordings and broadcasts
Several audio recordings were made. Gunni Heidler was responsible for the live mixing and did recordings for the radio broadcasts and the movie. Ulrich Wilkening recorded the whole festival for the compilation LP. The NDR and the WDR broadcasted parts of the concerts on the radio.
The recordings made by Ulrich Wilkening still exist but can't be used completely anymore, because they were damaged from a water leakage in his cellar. The WDR and NDR didn't keep any of their radio broadcasts.

TV-Report
The youth's program "Direkt" by the ZDF recorded a 11-minute report about the festival. It was directed by Cornelia Schlede and broadcasted on August 20th, 1977.
A few seconds of Checkpoint Charlie playing "Smogalarm" can be seen, many interviews with the visitors and the organizers. At the end there are 3 minutes of Embryo playing "Make It Easy".
Those recordings still exist as a broadcast copy in the archives of the ZDF. The quality is very bad, because the tape degraded over time. It's unknown if the original film recordings still exist.

It was shown in a few cinemas in 1978 and then disappeared, without anyone even knowing about its existance. In 2019 it was restored and remastered from the original film recordings. The WDR broadcasted it in their "Rockpalast" series.
Releases
