Soft Verdict's "For Christmas Only" is an almost identical version to "Circular Breathing" from "Vergessen", in case anybody does not know.

Why for heaven sake again so many tracks that have been released again and again on the Various GOCP samlpers?
What about "Monks In The Snow-A Theme For This Special Evening" and "Blue Christmas" from the genius Thick Pidgeons.
