"The world of Krautrock was forever changed in late 1987 when the master tapes for the mythical never-released album by the early 70's trio Damenbart were discovered in Spain by a former associate of the band. The incredible find was whispered about in elite collector circles for months and when the tapes were finally played back publicly for the first time, it quickly became apparent that all of the legend and hype that surrounded these mysterious 1971 recordings had been completely justified. The tapes were soon handed to members of the German experimental group Hirsche Nicht Aufs Sofa to give the album a proper release and allow this music to finally see the light of day. The resulting LP was immediately hailed as a classic of Krautrock, with one excited reviewer calling it 'the best album Ash Ra Tempel never made!' Unfortunately, as this LP was issued in only a very small edition, many Krautrock fans wound up bitterly empty-handed. Now, once and for all, this amazing album is being brought forward again for all of the hungry ears out there to fully digest. In addition to re-issuing the recordings contained on the LP, this CD appends an additional 19 minutes of previously unreleased studio material from the original sessions, as well as a live track from 1972. The packaging features several photos of the band along with some mind-blowing collage art." Reissued on April Fool's Day, 2003.

Classic HNAS-offshoot reissue, originally issued on Dom Elchklang in 1989. "During his off hours while a member of the legendary German underground avant-garde group Hirsche Nicht Aufs Sofa, Achim P. Li Khan kept himself busy with a number of unusual side projects. The late 80's were an especially fruitful period for Achim, and it was during this time that his group Brigitte & the Hansen Experience released their only album. Packaged in an unassuming cover, the record's two side-long tracks were a mutant space-rock hybrid assembled from distorted samples, stretches of atmospheric interference, and out-of-sync beats so profoundly damaged that the few listeners who had acquired the LP were left disoriented and amazed. Because of the LP's limited edition, it's arrival was overlooked at the time, and it has remained an elusive collectible known of by only a lucky few. Now, Psychedelic Pig has endeavored to bring forward this mind-boggling audio collage once again. Remastered from the original tapes, with additional photos and a previously unreleased 17-minute live track, this definitive re-release is set to mystify and delight a fresh population of tuned-in ears worldwide."
