Oregon's first tour of Germany took place in March 1974, and it is well documented by recordings.

  • March 13: Onkel Pö's Carnegie Hall, Hamburg
  • March 15: Studio 1 des NDR Funkhauses, Hannover (with Paul Bley)
  • March 18: Radio Studio SWR Villa Berg, Stuttgart (with Wolfgang Dauner)
  • March 18: Audimax, University of Freiburg
  • March 19: Liederhalle, Stuttgart (with Paul Bley)
  • March 20: Unknown venue, München
  • March 21: Sendesaal, Köln

Presumably the first Stuttgart recording was made early in the day, in time for the group to travel to Freiburg for an evening performance.
