Originally released as LP on the Kosmische Musik label in 1974. First re-issue on Spalax Music Label as CD in 1994. This isn't quadrophonic as it states on the cover.
This LP reissue has a little difference in Gille's first sentence on track 1: Hallo Galactic People! Ich lade euch ein zur allerersten kosmischen Plattenproduktion mit Timothy Leary ... Klaus Vierkanal-Schulze ... Tangerine Dream ... Ash Ra Tempel.... On the Original LP Tangerine Dream is missing and Klaus Schulze is announced without Vierkanal Seems that a different Mastertape was used for the LP re-release.
The Test Pressing was manufactured 24-1-97. ?id=r31698689 Therefore, it can be assumed that this release was already planned in 1996, but was then produced and released in 1997.
