    1. Merci beaucoup, Vitko! The part that "requires active engagement on the part of the listener" sounds especially promising. :)

  4. Wow - that's a real surprise.
    Was searching for this LP for some time.
    But the 200,- euros which a seller over at discogs asks for are really too much for my liking...
    Really appreciated. And as Lucky already pointed out, "active engagement" is welcome on my side as well.

    2. All thanks goes to you Vitko for sharing the music you enjoy. Without your effort I would probably not have the opportunity to discover these, nor to attune my ear and acquire a broader taste in music. The design and consistent layout of your blog entries also makes reading here a pleasure. To be honest, I owe you several retrospective "thank you's" for past downloads. I used to be lazy like that as I first listen with the intention of returning should I like the music. I can repay you with a different coin though. I administrate a Hat label side blog at The Liar. We have 265 albums to share and if you want, I will send you an invitation. My email address is indigonoir@gmail.com.
