I love that early stuff by Carla--and Michael Mantler, too. For some reason I had errantly thought that Anne Peacock and here husband, Gary, had been part of the Mantler-Bley world but I can't seem to substantiate it!

I have a few Zentner albums but just wanted to mention he guests on the latest Manna/Mirage album Autobiographie from this year 2023, good to see he's still playing the electric violin. Guy Segers from Univers Zero adds bass to a couple of tracks as well.

I didn't consider any JAPO, CAMRO or WATT-releases for my list (also I just found out Carla was in the Progarchives database)
