Live concert by Manuel Gottsching and Klaus Schulze at the Royal Festival Hall.
ASH RA TEMPEL, pioneering veterans of the "Berlin School", became known worldwide with their LPs / publications in the years 1971-1973. On the debut album of the same name from 1971 in the formation of Hartmut Enke (bass), Manuel Göttsching (guitar), Klaus Schulze (drums), ASH RA TEMPEL radically deconstructed elements of rock and blues and combined them with electronic sounds to create novel sound collages. Göttsching and Schulze met again and again during their later solo careers and demonstrated their musical ties to innovative guitar and electronics, but it was not until 2000 that they came together again for a short interlude as "ASH RA TEMPEL". Julian Cope (author of "Krautrock-Sampler") had invited Göttsching to his Cornucopea Festival in London, and so the wonderful opportunity arose for a unique reunion concert, which took place on April 2nd, 2000 in London's Royal Festival Hall. During the preparations for the concert, the studio album "Friendship" was created in advance. Both recordings, the studio album as well as the live recording from the concert in London "Gin Rosé" were released in 2000 in a small edition that was quickly sold out. The studio album "Friendship" was already re-released in 2014 (CD), due to the great demand here the long-awaited live album "Gin Rosé" is finally being reissued. Göttsching and Schulze combine tradition and vision, but instead of reactivating the sounds of the 1970s, the spirit of this unique liaison flows through every note of this concert, which is still contemporary today and shows the two actors with their usual and unwavering joy in playing. Recorded live at the Royal Festival Hall, London 02 April 2000 "Gin Rosè" is now considered a "farewell" concert in this line-up historically valuable document on German music history Klaus Schulze: keyboards, drum machines, sequencing, Manuel Göttsching: electric, acoustic and Hawaiian guitars  complete, unabridged concert on CD including bonus DVD of the entire concert

Since the release of thie music way back in 1977, the music fascinats the listener. The Music is timeless and therefore voted to the ultimative best releases in electronicmusic ever.
The 6 Tracks are perfectly arranged and include the best guitarsound Manuel Göttsching ever has produced. The slow sequences and the effects are the missing link, that fullfill this music with the best athmosphere ever.
Everything fits, everything works... perfect!

Dream & Desire belongs more with the Virgin Years era. It's not easy to relate it to New Age of Earth or Blackouts, since is has its own unique atmosphere. The compositions on D&D is Manuel in his most sublime and contemplative style, words that could describe it: flowing, moody, gentle, peaceful, comforting. It lacks the agressiveness of Blackouts or Belle Alliance, it's way too gentle, but that's what makes this CD so special: take the best pieceful moments in New Age, and then multiply it by a 100, that's how Dream And Desire feels.
