I rememeber hearing Alcatraz or Happy Birthday in my car driving to hamburg and back I rewinded the tape again and again because of the indian vibe and the trance elements it gave me so much energy and helped me to stay awake. Also in the club it was a real pusher. The B-Side I will fight no more forever was previously released on another record from Peyote and never reached the club status as Alcatraz. Thanks to RS for releasing this.

when i first bought this record, i played the b side first by accident, i sat there listening and although i thought wtf is this then i gradually adjusted and thought hey this is a ok track, reminded of me of indians/sci fi/1984 type of stuff. Its really catchy it does and will grow on you. Keyboard riff is overwhelming and real downtempo. Close your eyes and you can imagine getting ready for battle! lol. PEYOTE-I WILL FIGHT NO MORE. A SIDE Alcatraz-typically belgian techno again with indian type vocals 8/10 B SIDE i will fight no more 8/10

Yeah, I agree with vinylserver.
Beautyfull mysterious track and on the background you here 'happy birthday to ya'....this track was played every time we had birthday party back in the early nineties.
'I will fight no more forever' is a typical track that could hit right in the soul. It gives me the 'native/ritual' vibe on how whe should preserve our earth and be thankfull.
Still gives back a lot of memories and melodramatic feeling.

Rated 5/5

great release,but the track "Alcatraz" is not "Alcatraz"!!!
the name of the track is "Happy Birthday",they took the wrong track from the master!!!
if you listen to the track carefully,you can hear them singing "Happy Birthday"!
Dj DAG,who produced that record,told me when it was released,that´s 100%!!!
"Happy Birthday" is a really nice track,but believe me,"Alcatraz" is awesome,I heard it a couple of times from DAT,back in 1992!!!
it´s a real shame that it was never released!
