Camizole was until then rather a collective of unbridled improvisations and wild practices close to the happening. In 1975 Camizole became an electronic music duo. Klaus Schulze was even ready to produce a record. The separation of the duo in the fall of the same year prevented the realization of this project, which would see the light of day four decades later. Gatefold sleeve with a reproduction of a letter from Klaus Schulze, a collage of photographs, press articles and vintage posters. The cassette version is included in a box, with two posters, badge, etc.
