Known best for her early work with Wim Wenders, and for her album "Colour Green," Sibylle Baier remains one of the most beautiful and elusive artists of recent times. After giving up a career in the arts in Germany to raise a family in America, her son found old recordings of her music from the 70s and compiled them into a CD album for her 50th birthday for her and all her party guests. Somehow J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr received a copy, and gave it to the execs at the Twin Orange label, where they ended up publishing it in 2006. "Colour Green" remains one of the most hauntingly beautiful albums I've ever heard. It's the perfect album for autumn, right as the leaves are changing.
