Transparent vinyl with blue streaks. "In 1976
Michael Hoenig
had a brief collaboration with
Ash Ra Tempel
's
Manuel Göttsching
in Berlin; a 48-minute recording of one of the sessions was released in 1995 under the title
Early Water
on
Bernd Kistenmacher
's Musique Intemporelle label. The album was deleted and unavailable for a long time. Now, finally, a re-issue of
Early Water
is available again. Michael Hoenig still remembers: 'While I had been working on the
Departure From The Northern Wasteland
album, Manuel Göttsching had asked me if I would team up with him for some concerts in France, since his group had just gone through one of its hibernation periods. We rehearsed in my place for three or four weeks. One evening we got a call regarding some missing guarantee, which ultimately led to the decision to cancel the tour. Just for fun, we played one of the planned sets for a last time. Even though I do not recall pressing a record button, somebody recently dug up a Revox tape of that very set. After performing some digital sonic archaeology on it, it was just released under the very appropriate title
Early Water
.' Manuel Göttsching adds: 'Unfortunately, some of the concert dates were not confirmed in time and we had to cancel the complete tour just on the day before we wanted to leave for France. On that evening, nevertheless, we recorded our last rehearsal 'just in case.' It turned out as a flowing harmonic piece, reflecting much of the optimistic air of 1976. Michael made his 'departure' to Los Angeles in the early 1980s. When we met again in November, 1994, I proposed to release this old track of ours. Michael took the original tape to Los Angeles, lovingly restored it and --well, here is it again!'"
