Despite the title, this is not a live album.Villa Baviera, formerly known as Colonia Dignidad, is a Chilean hamlet in Parral Commune, Linares Province, Maule Region. It is located in an isolated area of central Chile. It was founded by a group of German immigrants led by Paul Schaefer, a former Luftwaffe paramedic, in 1961. Investigations by Amnesty International and the Chilean National Commission for Truth and Reconciliation Report have verified that Colonia Dignidad was used by DINA, the Chilean secret police, as a torture and detention centre during Augusto Pinochet's military dictatorship.
