  • More than a rumour: Four solo albums are planed to be re-released on CD by EMI:
    1. Hattler’s Bassball (with the possible inclusion of a third bonus-track)
    2. Peter’s So Weit (for the first time on CD – this is supposed to be coming in a new sleeve with the original artwork to be re-printed in the booklet)
    3 & 4. Alto Pappert’s two solo-albums ( first time on CD, no information on bonus-tracks, revamped artwork etc on that)
    Originally they were supposed to be released in April 2008 but at the moment it rather looks like possible a May/June-release-date.
