The Peter Brötzmann Octett
"Machine Gun"

Label: BRÖ

 Number: 2 

Made in Germany

Personnel: Peter Brötzmann (tenor, baritone sax) - Peter Kowald (bass) - Sven Johansson (drums) - Willem Breuker (tenor sax) 

- Fred Van Hove (piano) - Evan Parker (tenor sax) -  Buschi Niebergall (bass) - Hank Bennink (drums)

Recorded in Germany, 1968

Note: This is the extremely rare first pressing on Brötzmanns own Brö label

 NOT the later pressing on FMP 

 Printed in a limited run, briefly sold at performances and never commercially distributed. 

My last spare and very collectable copy of an almost never seen but much sought after European avant garde classic


Condition

Cover: very strong VG

The silk screen cover shows an overall very clean front & back

Downgraded because the front cover has writing in faded red felt pen along the top edge

 and some visible paper rubbing in the same area;  

a minor tear at the edge of the top opening, small faded rubber stamp on front & back, 

a few small numbers written in blue ballpoint on back; (see scans)

Despite those specific defects the cover is still in overall very presentable condition

and up to collectable standards

 NO seam splits, NO creases, 

NO folds, NO peeling, 
NO pin holes, NO bents,  NO wrinkles, NO other visible flaws

 

Vinyl: Strong VG+

Shiny surface, flawless except for a few superficial hairlines not affecting playback

 NO scratches, NO scuffs, NO other visible marks

Labels look beautiful both sides

Audition: NM

Superb playback, fully undisturbed, like new

NO surface noise, NO crackle, NO ticks, NO skips, NO jumps

NO other audible flaws


Grading

All gradings are based on thorough visual inspection and a full audition.

The standard scale applies (M*, NM, VG+, VG). 

As a rule Near Mint (NM) is my highest grade. 

* I don't believe in Mint (M) and will only use it in the exceptional case

when absolutely sure to deal with an item from unplayed and untouched stock.

I don't offer anything below VG.
