Great lost band from Frankfurt, Germany. In 1973/1974 Papa Zoot Band played all over Germany, mainly in clubs but also on festivals. Titles 1 to 4 were recorded live at SWF-Studio U1 in Baden Baden on April 13, 1973. Titles 5 to 10 were recorded at "Bunker", the bands rehearsal room in Frankfurt. They played a very melodic sound but with a sense of drama comparable to Nektar, Eloy or Jane. Outstanding nearly 18 minute titles "Fly away" could be a long track. Characteristic for the bands sound are especially the swirling organ sound played by Ex-Nosferatu organ-player Reinhard "Tamy" Grohé. These recordings show Papa Zoot Band during their best period. Hard to believe, that there was no record company to give them a contract. The sound of the CD is brilliant. All titles were remastered from the original master tapes. CD comes with comprehensive booklet and rare photos.

Kristofferson is the debut album by the singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson. It was produced by Fred Foster and released in June 1970 by Monument Records.

"Critics gave Kristofferson a positive reception but the album's original release was a commercial failure. In 1971, following the success of Janis Joplin's recording of "Me and Bobby McGee", the album was reissued as Me and Bobby McGee; it peaked at number 10 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart and at 43 on Billboard's Top LPs and the release was certified gold. The album garnered mixed ratings in retrospective reviews, as some critics expressed their negative reception of Kristofferson's singing."

The Original Wicked Lester Sessions is a bootleg release of Wicked Lester's 1972 album for Epic Records, which was never officially released. The album was recorded over a period of months when time was available at Jimi Hendrix's newly built Electric Lady Studios. A master tape cover shows the date October 15, 1972.  When the album was completed and presented to Epic, its A&R director Don Ellis refused to release it. Wicked Lester members Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons left the group and formed a new incarnation of Wicked Lester, soon recruiting drummer Peter Criss and guitarist Ace Frehley and changing the newer group's name to Kiss.
