Heiner Stadler-Brains on Fire, Vol 2(Labor lp 702)Rec 1971-3






































For Agmosk and who ever else is interested, Here's Vol 2, of Heiner Stadler's Brains on Fire , i Won't Waffle on ..those interested can read my description of Vol 1....
there really is very little info online about these sessions .. so please if you know something ,fill in the  gaps.

As i stated in that post , Side one of this Lp, a Duet featuring Dee Dee Bridgewater and the Masterly Reggie Workman is unfortunately damaged almost beyond repair .
 This Therefore is just a straight rip, with only the volume raised.... no eq, de click or anything else...

I have a high tolerance for Vinyl noise , and just barely find it listenable .... i'll leave it for someone better than i to restore side one... feel free to attempt it and repost in comments.
The sound quality of these two sessions are very different, side a (the damaged side) being bright and reverberant while side two has more of a rough hewn , grainier , low budget sound.


Side A- (damaged)
1)Love in the Middle of the air
Reggie Workman -db
Dee Dee Bridgewater -Voice
Leonore Kandel- poem
rec, Generation Sound Studio- 3rd July 1973

Side B- (vg)
1)Pointed, (sextet), Workman-db, Tyrone Washington-tenor sax,fl
H.Stadler-Composer, Pno,  Jimmy Owens-trpt, Garnett Brown-Trb
Brian Brake-dr

2) U.C.S..(Quartet)
Omit, Owens &Brown

Enjoy !!

  12. This a rip from Heiner Stadler's double CD "Brains on Fire" which includes the LP posted here years ago.
    Not my rip but the same music as on my copy (maybe the track with Dee Dee Bridgwater is from an alternate master).
