Album now-playing: Cosmic Jokers' s/t - the band that never was.
Their albums were acid party jam sessions recorded and released without the supergroup's knowledge. Participants included Manuel Göttsching and Klaus Schulze of Ash Ra Tempel, Jurgen Dollase and Harald Grosskopf of Wallenstein, and Dierks. Regardless, it's wonderful stuff!
