The long-awaited new edition of an absolutely unique music groups debut album. The American vibraphonist Dave Pike had already become famous in the 1960s through his work with the likes of Herbie Mann, Bill Evans and Paul Bley. Heding towards Europe, the combination of Pike's vibraphone style and the electrical as well acoustic guitar and sitar play by the German Volker Kriegel made the Dave Pike set an instant success. "NOISY SILENCE - GENTLE NOISE" is an ideal title for this record. Dave Pikes and Volker Kriegel's music is as light as it is loud, eloquent as it is silent, romance is hidden behind its power. "Mathar" became the most popular track on the album, which is known far beyond genre boundaries and still streamed millionfold. The artists: Dave Pike, Volker Kriegel, Hans Rettenbacher & Peter Baumeister.
