Limited to 500 copies re-release of the 1972 debut. Because he saw himself unduly regulated by the editor-in-chief of the Hamburg weekly "Die Zeit", Uwe Nettelbeck broke - at least temporarily - with journalism in 1969, set up a studio in a former school building in W?mme and became a music producer. The reason for this was the inquiry of the English label Polydor, to which personal contacts existed, whether he could not put together a German rock band. So it came to the foundation of the Krautrock legend Faust. But their avant-garde approach did not appeal to Polydor. Although Faust are considered pioneers today, their records sold badly at the time. But that didn't stop Nettelbeck from producing other projects until he left the music business in 1975, especially the band Slapp Happy, founded by Anthony Moore in Hamburg in 1972. Treppenwitz of history: Nettelbeck and Moore came together because Polydor rejected his third album as non-commercial. So he started Happy with his German girlfriend Dagmar Krause and the US-American Peter Blegvad Slapp. They released "Sort Of" in 1972 with Faust as their backing band. But since Slapp Happy didn't play any concerts, sales were limited. The re-release of "Sort Of", limited to 500 copies each, is released as a CD and LP on 180-gram vinyl.
