the stuttgart postfluxus artist albrecht/d. rehearsing on soupranova saxes and hillaryous percussions in his living room in 1990

and yes end yes ant the torture never stops: here is an other annother annoyink tape we found in the heritage of the stuttgart postfluxus artist albrecht/d. when we cleared out his flat in bad cannstatt after his untimely death in 2013; one of many tapes that no-one had ever listened to until now. 
this recording claims to be a recording of "solo sopransax" from october 1990, and, as in most cases concerning the tapes of albrecht/d., it is and it is not. it starts with about 25 minutes of free improvized noises on a soprano saxophone recorded in his living room with the radio on and with some environmental sounds, and then moves over to some minimalistic percussive sounds on unidentified instruments for some 35 minutes. everything sounds very funny and coumpletely relaxed, it seems to be a rehearsal just for his own purposses, and not a weapon training for an upcoming live performance. so this is a rather intimate private recording, and you are allowed to forget all about it after you have heard it. 
for your listening pleasure i edited out some clicks and cloncks and coumpiled a 64-minutes-file of this very private performance. i like it, and you're allowed to dance, in case you don't know.
