The Classic Virgin LP re-mastered and repackaged, properly annotated and divided into tracks.

More unorthodoxies from the Faust people. This time around it's a holding-operation - Faust Volume Two-and-a-half, an album of material recorded informally and originally intended only for the pleasure of the group and their friends. They used to refer to it as The Faust Party Tapes; now, with British audiences curious to discover more about why they make those funny noises, it's become The Faust Tapes and Virgin are offering it to us for the price of a single.

Recorded at Wümme June 1971 to June 1973
Engineered by Kurt Graupner
Produced by Uwe Nettelbeck
