Hi mithrandir...!

I only have three. If there are more let me know...!

1st...stunning, as you know...! Original in a "Star-sign" blue cover, re-issues in a re-print of the 2nd's jacket

2nd...man, oh, man, did this take a long time to 'get' into...! You guys may think this is to the 1st what Van Halen II is to Van Halen I but man...! ...it's like way out there (in the taste stakes) Love it now but it took a good 35 listens until I was happy. Collectors: If you see this or the 1st going cheap(ish) don't hesitate...! (but I hope you are buying it for the music)

3rd...Musea label...easiest to get hold off. A very pleasant Zeuhl/Jazz/Lounge affair it is too...but be aware this clocks in at around the 25 to 30 minute mark

So come on Soleil Zeuhl...! Release these beauties NOW...!


...or...I may do it myself (...and trust me the artwork would be better )

You think that a label like Soleil Zeuhl or Musea would have given this a proper reissue by now, all of their albums,

how many Eider Stellaire albums are there anyway, about 3 or 4?

This album actually got me interested in Zheul and Magma in particular. This one and wonderful Zao's "Shekina"

The only Zeuhl I've really gotten into is Magma and Dun. I've heard a few other bands, but they didn't do anything for me.

  • I've got the VanderTop 1976 album, which would have got a mention if the sound quality was better. Soleil D'Ork is on my list to pick up next time I swing by ReR, who have quite a few copies in stock.

    Eskaton Kommandkestra...!

    Always lovin' a bit of Eskaton mithrandir...!

    Has anyone got there hands on the unreleased "I Wish"...? ! I only have one track (on the "Enneade" Musea compilation) and what a scorcher it is...! (I had the cassette of "4 Visions" until my tape-deck chewed it and my ex-girlfriend 'accidentally' threw it in the trash...Some things are never meant to be...)

    (sheepishly...), I'm sort of friends (well, acquaintances) with Natsuki and Kumiko of Bondage Fruit and I must have seen 'em live a dozen times. Great, great band who get better and better with every release...! I have never seen a better guitarist than Kido Natsuki...! Awesome technique in any genre or style.

    Check the Japan 5 thread for more thoughts on the Fruit

    Does anyone on the forum know Eider Stellaire (or is old friends with the band...! ) ? Man, they need a high quality re-issue...!

    It's amazing how Yoshida-san manages to find such incredibly talented female musicians and singers who look like they've just come from a modelling assignment for the Japanese edition of Vogue. Clearly being a Zeuhl drummer makes you a bit of a babe magnet - now where did I leave me drumsticks.....

    hey, do any of you cats have the Koenjihyakkei DVD? I love that sucker, I must have watched it about 50 times the first week I had it, sometimes I would just have it on in the background while did other things.  I have it stored nicely right next to my beloved Magma - theuz hamtaahk trilogie DVD,

    no love for Eskaton or Bondage Fruit?

    I agree that Eider Stellaire I album is mammoth!  incredibly heavy stuff! Iwish they would give it a proper reissue, for I only have a burned CD straight from the vinyl.

    that Archaia album is also a scorcher, very unique album that anyone into Zeuhl, Kraut, or analogue synthy/spacey music ought to check out,

    The Magma BBC recording should be made compulsory listening...! Unbelievable quality...! <I wholeheartedly agree with this statement as well!

    Dun's "Eros"...! What a classic...!

    LP only available from their concerts back in the late '70s...!

    Did any ProgArchives members witness Dun live...? !

    I love the Weidorje album...!
    It would make my Top 30...It's just one of those records that I never get the urge to play for some reason...

    Hey Oliver...! A few years back I got offered their unreleased 2nd album on tape. I couldn't confirm if it was Weidorje or not...maybe just a rumour. Do you know anything about this...?
