I am now one of the few, the proud, the owners of a copy of the Jubilee 
Edition, KS' 25-CD box set. set me back $350, but at a cost/minute of $0.18, 
that's cheap music. every disc is about 77-78 minutes long. 
 
1000 copies were made, they have all been sold. clearly KS got a fair piece 
of 
income for that one. 
 
I actually think this set is better thank the two previous large sets (10 
discs each). the only detractions are Arthur Brown's "singing" and the 
interviews in german. I don't care for Arthur Brown, personally, and haven't 
liked his previous appearances on KS' discs. 
 
two discs are concert performances of things you've heard before, the rest is 
brand-new releases. I think two discs contain actually new material, most are 
things spread over the past 25 years. one track is a 24-minute drum solo by 
KS! 
 
all very pleasant, much like his other work. 
 
a good booklet with it...with a discog, leading to the following question: 
 
the GEPR book lists three albums that are not in this "official" discog: 
"Blanche", "Elektronik Impressionen" and "Rock On". what are these albums? 
 
KS has his own web-site, run by "kdm" as is just about everything else 
KS does: http://www.klaus-schulze.com/ 
 
the web-site also has the discog, plus some further details, but still 
doesn't list these three in the discog. 
 
it does mention a recorded, but unreleased Wahnfried album, and 
another Eurock tells me there is a new DSOM disc available shortly.

[OK, some corrections will be in order for the GEPR. _Body Love_ was to be 
released in the UK as _Blanche_ but it was never issued. _Elektronik 
Impressionen_ is an East German version of _Dig It_ and was released on Amiga 
in 1982. _Rock On_ came from a discog that someone e-mailed to me ages ago 
but 
I can find no other verification. The discog that was mailed to me assigned 
it 
a catalog number (Brain Metronome 0080 046) but the "Crack in the Cosmic Egg" 
Brain discog doesn't list it. Can *anyone* verify the existence of this 
album? 
It sounds like a greyleg or something released by K-Tel....mt]

the bodhran is a _drum_, so it would probably be kind of hard to get any 
kind of "string sound" from it!

Hi Ben, hi all, 
 
the 3 albums by Epitaph *are* available on CD. They are listed in the 
mail order catalogue of Record Heaven, Sweden: 
 
http://www.uni-x.se/recordheaven/cgi-bin/Givecd.pl?german 
 
The first one is also listed in the KrautRock Supplement of Delerium, 
England: 
 
http://www.delerium.co.uk/freakemp/frkempkr.html 
 
Outside The Law is available from Cranium, New Zealand: 
 
http://www.cranium.co.nz/ 
 
As far as I know these CDs are illegal and therefore mastered from LPs 
but I don't know of the actual quality. The Germanofon counterfeits of 
two Grobschnitt CDs that I happen to own are of very good sound quality 
so maybe it's worth a try... 
 
Best wishes
