Discussions with Jost Gebers, the founder of Free Music Production, led to the release on his debut album, Wichlinghauser Blues (FMP, 1973).During the 1980s and 1990s, Reichel recorded solo albums and duets with RĂ¼diger Carl, Tom Cora, Eroc, Fred Frith, and Kazuhisa Uchihashi.He was featured in 'Crossing Bridges', a 1983 music programme based around jazz guitar improvisation, and broadcast by Channel 4[4] He was a member of the September Band with Paul Lovens, RĂ¼diger Carl, and Shelley Hirsch.The record labels Intakt, Rastascan, and Table of the Elements released some of Reichel's albums, compensating for the limited distribution of FMP.[6] The resulting sounds exceeded the range of conventional tuning and added unusual effects, from odd overtones to metallic noises, to his play.
