Sehr Gut Kommt Sehr Gut

Artists

Album Info

Labels: Das Büro, Schallmauer

This record is a parody of the bands mentioned in the tracklisting. Actually every song is by Xao Seffcheque, who imitates the style of each band.

The German music press (Sounds, Musik Express) fell for it at the time and reviewed it as an actual compilation. According to Musik Express, Kraftwerk were the first to take legal action, so that a sticker, "Achtung Satire!" (Caution: Satire!) or 'Diese Platte ist eine Parodie' ('This record is a parody'), had to be attached to the sleeve.

This release has no warning sticker but the warning is printed on backside sleeve.
This pressing has no label rim text and no GEMA.

Tracklisting as on label;

'Sehr Gut Kommt Sehr Gut', 'Punk Supermarkt' are taken from the single Xao Seffcheque - Happy New Wave.
A2, A4, A6, A8, A10 are summarily listed on the label after the tracks of Side A ("Stalagmit 1-5"), the same for B2, B4, B6, B8, B10, B12, B14 on Side B ("Stalagmit 6-12"), B14 being barely audible.
'Bring Deinen Körper Auf Die Party!' was later re-recorded by Family 5 - Tanzmix with Peter Hein on vocals.
'Es Hat Keine Disco Hier' is made out of samples taken from Mittagspause - Punk Macht Dicken Arsch, the overdubbed spoken word bit by Peter Hein is taken from the tapes later released on Herrenreiter.
'King Kong' is an actual contribution by Sternhagel and was later re-recorded for his solo album Sternhagel Kommt..
A6 is listed as "Wrong Colours (O.B.)" on the back sleeve.
B6 is listed as "Sample & Hold (Wer Bitter Im Munde Hat, Kann Nicht Süsspricken)" on the back sleeve.
B7 is not really featured on the record due to its length (0:00).

Back sleeve gives thanks "for participation" to the credited musicians plus Anne Effertz, Bernd Schmidt, Padeluun, Boyd Rice, Peter Glaser, Mike A. Hentz, Wolfgang Schmelter, Brigitte Brehm, Monroe, Schampoo, Susanne & Karin, Lothar, Das Büro, rara, Albert H. aus HH, "and to you of course for buying this record!"
