  1. A very particular and interesting album and a spotlight on the Austrian music scene that is unfortunately not so popular in our community.

  2. Thank you very much, Corvimax. This share is especially appreciated.
    Several month ago I read the book "Die Wiener Free-Jazz-Avantgarde - Revolution im Hinterzimmer" by Andreas Felber.
    It is the only but a very comprehensive book about the Reform Art Unit and its many offsprings but also about the Masters of Unorthodox Jazz (plus a bit about Kogelmann).
    Unfortunately most of their music isn't so easy to get hold of.
    According the book the recording date/location is as follows: July 1988, Soundfield Studio, Harmannsdorf / NÖ (NÖ > (Lower Austria).
    Thanks again!

  3. I become much interested in RAU music recently, unfortunately I dont know german, so my only reference are http://www.advancedpoetx.com/RAU/rau00i.html and some Milo Fine writing at http://milofine.com/ (the latter also for buyng some of RAU most recent albums)
    with the hope that Fritz Novotny one day decide of making their music more widely known
    and thanks for the date/location note
