1975's Le Berceau de Cristal (not released until 1994) is a soundtrack to a French film, which displays the logical development between the Ash Ra Tempel and Ashra albums. Manuel Gottsching lined up with friend, and former Agitation Free guitarist, Lutz Ulbricht to continue his exploration of cyclical guitar sounds and electronics. It's truly a successor to Inventions for Electric Guitar, with sound on sound electric guitar at its core. This coupled with some sequencers, Farfisa, and other synthesizers added on top. Wonderful late night listening that has that cosmic Berlin School sound.
Ownership: CD: 1994 Spalax (France). Purchased new a couple of years after release. Basic jewel box issue with brief liner notes in French, and includes a vintage photo.
