Release notes

A much sought-after classic featuring a Mellotron – the first pressing is meanwhile traded at about € 400 in mint condition. It is the first LP by Gila, neatly recorded in Dieter Dierks’ studio in Stommeln in the summer of 1971. The album is largely instrumental and tremendous. The 32-page booklet contains a long report of keyboarder Fritz Scheyhing, the last surviving Gila member, looking back at the band’s history, and a number of rediscovered photographs from Gila’s early period.
