GALACTIC SUPERMARKET

Galactic Supermarket sounds a lot like the first Cosmic Jokers album - no surprise, given that they came from the exact same informal jam session that was secretly recorded and released without the artists' permission by Cosmic Couriers head honcho Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser. It's just as good as the previous album, though I would say this and the self-titled debut are the only Jokers albums you really need - Planeten Sit-In covers inessential scraps from the legendary session, whilst the other two albums consist of tracks from other Cosmic Couriers label artists edited (and, in the case of one of the albums, with Kaiser's girlfriend singing over them). In short, they're for collectors only, whilst this album and the first one covers all the Jokers material that's worth actively seeking out.
