  3. Oh yeah! :D
    Glad you unearthed it. No harm, nobody has any plans to reissue that... It will end up on Bandcamp one day, I guess.

    I explain a bit more about the 2 versions (2 different mixes) of this album here:
    http://www.sonnysimmons.org/disco5.htm#46

    The album that started it all for many of the people involved - Sonny, Jeff, me... We all saw the future was electric, electronic, a constant mutation, improvisation couldn't stay where it was any longer.

    Even though I'm rare around here these days, I have a thought for all the old friends and refuges from beloved Church #9. Everytime I visit, I'm happy to see this music is still around and kicking, and you keep on the good fight preserving it.

    Love,
    J

  4. hello J, thank you for explaining about the two versions, I didnt notice it at that page.
    It would be great if this music appears on bandcamp, together with more from your 'reservoir'.
    I often meet your name in my discogs search; but owner, not for sale.
    to the next
    Massimo
