Thank you corvimax. The three pieces from 1969 are excellent, comparable to music you might find on 'Cosmic Music'. It's interesting to compare these against the piece from 26 years later.
I must find out more about the Reform Art Unit. Discogs looks like a good place to start, and the booklet for this CD also mentions several archive tapes, some dating back to 1969 & the early '70s; perhaps those will be released at some time.
Appreciated, thanks.
Unfortunately I don't think that we will have the chance to see some older material of the Reform Art Unit reissued. All along the years many recordings have been published, mostly in cdr and they are no more available. I'm in touch with some members of the band and suggested to reissue some music but nothing comes. I have heard about an lp that should have been published in september, a sort of compilation of recordings made during the 80's and previously published on tapes in a limited quantity, not very exciting in my opinion due to the fact that it is only a compilation.
But two recent recordings of some special incarnation of the R A U with Milo Fine are available here:

I only own the Edgar Alan Poe Suite and I really recommend it.
correct silence, Improcomposer Opera seems out of reach, says available there but is not (after enquiring)
What happens with your mail adress? two messages came back undelivered
I dont despair about seeing some old RAU music available again
Ta
BIG THX!...
Tantris, you can find a complete list of RAU music here, until 2014

Great - will do some digging. Thanks corvimax.
Thank you, Corvimax. After reading the book of Andreas Felber "The Viennese Free-Jazz-Avantgarde: Revolution in the back room" I got the impression that this recording seemed especially interesting.
i was waiting for that gem for a looooong time! Thanks!
Thank you!
this is remarkable:
