Gunter Hampel Journey to the Song Within - bringing the noodling and doodling chamber version of the larger 72-74 Galaxie Dream Band to an end by adding Sunny Murray here - which does wonders to the music!

Haptic Danjon Scale [entr'acte] (from the split LP)

[Stevo]

That sounds like a good idea, since it basically was the repetitive on-stage vamping to various "clap your hands, yeah, stomp your feet"-kinda things which put me off after a while.
That must be great when being among the concert crowd, but not so much when having that on your earphones while standing in line for a chinese meal.

I think the '74 Sugar shack set is brilliant, though that's probably Funkadelic the more rocky version of the band.

Ascension, Five Titles

Ascension, Five Titles

make sure you check out 'Broadcast' if you like that, better sound quality and I remember liking it much more.

Not wanting to start a thread for one inquiry, so I'll ask here: is Joe Foster's *Ethics* available?
Thanks in advance.

Incidentally, if anyone wants to swap some OOP stuff from my side for some of those OOP Eleh releases, PLEASE PM me.

Quasi una sonata - Alfred Schnittke

Random download. Not sure which version (I believe one with Gidon Kremer on violin).
I like this quite a bit. Any suggestions which Schnittke CDs to start with would be welcomed...

[Jesse]

I like this one, generally. Really like Collected Songs Where Every Verse Is Filled With Grief, but I really like well written threnody.

yeah, I still have a handful left, then it's OOP.

Thanks. I do know Broadcast. It's quite different from Five Titles, and I don't have a general prefernce for one over the other, though I understand why someone would. What's amazing about Broadcast is how fierce and coherent they are at once. Five Titles risks losing me throughout but gets hold of me at just the right moment always. The tension is terrific. I think it's more exhausting and in certain respects more extreme than Broadcast.
