As a helpful guide to the enthusiastic collector, here’s an almost complete list of recordings containing music composed or
arranged by Peter Schickele that are not available in Ye Old Schickele
Shoppe’s Peter
Schickele Recordings page. Some of these may still be found without
much trouble in major record stores, others will take a bit of searching to
track down, and a few of them will be a real challenge to locate.
We’ve tried to make this list as complete as possible, but there’s always
the chance we’ve overlooked some even harder to find recordings. If you
happen to know of anything we’ve missed, please let us know via e-mail.
