Klaus Schulze's 1979 masterwork, LIVE, finally gets its due as a reissue courtesy of Ryko. Schulze's 12th overall and first live release, LIVE's four epic tracks were culled from performances in Berlin in 1976 and Amsterdam and France in 1979 undertaken between the recording of studio classics MOONDAWN and DUNE, an era in which the synthesizer god's percolating, percussive proto-electronica was at its peak. "Fire" singer Crazy Arthur Brown makes a guest appearance on the two-disc set's epic closer "Dymagic."

Klaus Schulze is the living essence of electronic music, having both practically invented it in the 1970s, and embodying many of its signifiers: Teutonic, intellectual, and highly experimental. A founding member of the influential electronic group Tangerine Dream, Schulz left after one album to pursue other avenues of expression, first with Kraut-rockers Ash Ra Tempel and then as a prolific and enduring solo artist. His explorations in synthesizer rock have yielded several classic albums and have influenced the New Age and Trance genres.
