EARTHSTAR Collected Works

Popis:

"The complete works of Earthstar from 1978 to 1982 plus previously unreleased recordings including an extensive booklet on the band's history. Lovingly restored and remastered by Johannes Scheibenreif. First time on CD! Earthstar was an interesting project of the American musician Craig Wuest. The band was classified as electronic and ambient. Although the musicians came from Utica/N.Y., many journalists and fans called their style ""Krautrock"".

The band outed themselves as ardent admirers of that genre as well, especially German electronic artists like Neu, Cluster, Roedelius, and especially Klaus Schulze. Craig Wuest contacted Klaus Schulze and he was so impressed with Earthstar's talent that he invited the band to move to Germany to record and promote their music. The first Earthstar album ""Salterbarty Tales"" (1978) was released on the US label Moontower Records, parts of the second album ""French Skyline"" were recorded in Utica, but the final album was released in 1979 on the renowned German SKY label of Günther Körber. Earthstar and Klaus Schulze worked together until 1982, after which the musicians returned to the States and went their own ways. The band Earthstar was history.

Until today. All 4 studio albums (""Salterbarty Tales"", ""French Skyline"", ""Atomkraft? Nein Danke!"", ""Humans Only"") will be released as ""Collected Works"" for the first time on CD and digital. Plus, as a bonus: the previously unreleased album ""Sleeper The Nightlifer"", which Sky had passed on because it was too different from what listeners were used to from Earthstar. What an interesting discovery!"
