Aug 6, 1981 -

About this time one year ago Lexel (Hain), Franz (Ullrich), Ritchie (Klaus Reichardt), and I made a jam session. Lexel, Franz, and Ritchie had jammed before and Stampede had existed in the pass also, but it was the first time that I played with them. [Stop, I don't know where I got this information or misunderstood the German language, but this can not be true.] During our first jam session there was something strange in the air, something almost mystical. Nobody really noticed it though, or if they did they either forgot it, in that instant or they didn't care because they didn't understand it. [I'm assuming a lot.] [To an objective audience] It would sound very normal, maybe even a little boring, and it would not sound mystical or magical, the feeling was something that [probably] could not be [captured] in a recording, but it was there.
[At this time I was living in Laufach (a few miles away from Aschaffenburg, in the country) in Lexel Hain's home.] more to come....

  1. Isn't it strange how we see things in retrospect?

    I find this insight into your 19 year old self quite fascinating, and I am looking forward to reading more!

  2. I added some more to this post, I should have continued my line of thinking before ending the post. I'll do better next time.
