The Peter Brötzmann Octet - The Complete Machine Gun Sessions




This has the remastered version of the original Machine Gun LP from 1968 with a couple of alternative takes and the live Frankfurt version from the "Fuck De Boere" release just so you can compare and contrast.

CD released on Atavistic as part of their Unheard Music Series in 2007. It's not MP3.

thanks!! I had Herr Brotz sign my copy when I got to see him. Nice ol guy, a true cultural treasure.

@mike:
Where'd you see Mr. Brotzmann perform?

Classics never go out of style, as the hoary old saying goes. Sometimes I just have to return to this, Brotz's "Alarm" or Coltrane's "Ascension" to clear out the garage completely.
