Thanks for the GAM! Shickert is really an interesting character, in that he had the creativity to have been a major player in the krautrock movement, but either through personal choice or misfortune stayed at the sidelines of the scene. It's good some of his work is finally getting the chance to be heard. Thanks again!

Oh, thank heavens! I searched for this album high and low a few months ago (after collecting the other GAM album and some other Günter Schickert stuff), but it was almost non-existent... Just now I decided to revisit this blog, and it came practically out of nowhere! Thanks a lot.

(P.S. Schickert's collaboration with Klaus Schulze is also interesting [though little of Schickert's amazing guitar playing is heard]... I suggest you to feature it some time...)

Saw that Dirty Knobby is releasing this on vinyl later this year.

No one has asked me for the licence of my remaster.
No word on this from Günter either.
I can only assume that Firty Knobby is a bootleg issue. If an official vinyl issue is published it will appear via Bureau B.
