      Title: Take Your Headphones (1974 Seidr)

      Surely the oddity in the Kosmiche Kuriere saga, "Take Your Headphones" was a very, very limited sampler originally released in 1974, devised to introduce Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser's troupe to the US Market. Very much like Gille Lettmann's "Gilles Zeitschift", it took fragments of various Cosmic Couriers records and sessions, editing, mixing and splicing them up with spoken messages (courtesy of Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser and Gille Lettmann themselves!!), weird sound effects and even some classical music into a psychedelic headtrip! For sure, one of the most obscure and sought after releases from the krautrock scene. Don't miss it!
