Ah, Mr. Jeff has yet to see the prices from Mr Hausen direct. :) Single CDs go for $40 or so, though they are supposedly lavished with pages upon pages of liner notes. Nice packaging, but too much for the common man to afford unfortunately. The Hymnen he recommends goes for over $100. :( Ah, the one Stockhausen CD I got in a trade is most excellent, but I fear I shall never hear another.... Unfortunately, Mr Stockie has also made it a point to allow no one else to re-issue his work. So those extreme prices are what you will pay if you want some. (Though there is a recent-ish reworking of _Kontakte_ that has been mentioned, but that is a reworking and not the original.) Now...Did Stock, Hausen & Walkman name themselves after Stockhuasen or after Stock, Aitken & Waterman??? --- Peace Hugs and Unity Jason J. Tar W. W. J. D?

Average price is $30-$40 per CD (depending on how much liner notes, etc). I don't think there are any major works that aren't represented in this series (re: Peter's comment about upcoming Stocky re's). Plus nobody has bothered mentioning that this $120 Hymnen set is actually four (4) CDs, with two (2) performances (one purely electronic, one electronics with live instruments), one of which doesn't exist on vinyl AFAIK. However, since multiple intimations of this set's excessive cost have come up, I have a cost-cutting technique I'll recommend: 1) Come into the possession of one of the MASKs, or first 8 Skams or whatever 2) Auction it off on E-Bay for $250. 3) Buy a copy of Hymnen on vinyl AND CD with the proceeds. There, that wasn't so hard, was it?

Well, it beats Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman and Howe (or the Dead Milkmen's variation thereof). -rob ps- it's Gyorgi Ligeti and he went on a monstrous home run streak beginning in the last couple years of the 50s and continuing for at least a decade- see documentation/reissues on Wergo for the incontravertible evidence.
