Gunter Hampel,Anthony Braxton, Jeanne Lee-Familie(Birth LP, 008)1972 ...320kbs
Another contribution from an Anonymous friend, i havent been able to find a cover image of this one, which seems to be one of the few earlier Birth albums that has not been reissued...although there is evidence that one online seller on Ebay has cdr's for sale.
A search here confirms it's unavailability

Perhaps Hampel has chosen not to reissue this on the grounds that the original recording is so flat and one dimensional.
none the less the music is quite exceptional, a largely free improvised set ..its all more or less one free floating piece.
Great to hear Anthony Braxton on contra bass clarinet especially this vintage and setting... spine chilling stuff.
There is an ethereal quality to this wonderfully spacious set ..that could perhaps (heresy of heresie's) have used the slightly reverby ,crisp production values of a Manfred Eicher.
THANKS again anonymous for the opportunity to hear this unique combination of individuals in such a free wheeling setting.

(& the MUSIC of course!)
Thanks for posting. Braxton and Hampel obviously inspired each other.
Thank you so much.
Jeanne Lee ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Wow - thanks!
Yup, got this one. Rather murkily recorded, but the music is thrilling and very dense. Remarkable fusion of voice and instruments. And Jeanne Lee's on it!
I'll see if I can put the actual cover on the post.
The second part is not available anymore. Could you please upload it again?
Let me add another WOW and thanks for the opportunity to hear this great combination of musicians. I'm just discovering Jeanne, way too late obviously, but what a joy!
Thank you :-)
Wow, over 8 years later and those mediafire links are still going...
Double Wow!! over 9 years...Thank you, Sotise!
Besides, I was searching the Gunter Hampel Group & Jeanne Lee Wergo-Jazz from April 2, 1968. I was hoping to find it here...
Hi Bhowani - the Wergo LP of Hampel will be reissued on LP.
I know the producer who bought the rights from Gunter Hampel for a limited vinyl edition.
