Berlin, Germany: Dossier Records (CD), 1995.
4.875" x 5.625" x 0.5", single CD with booklet, eight tracks, "DCD 9076".

Electric Newspaper. Issue. Three. by Psychic TV (Genesis P-Orridge and Larry Thrasher), as released on CD by Dossier Records (Berlin, Germany) in 1995. Music and editing by Genesis P-Orridge and Larry Thrasher. Cover collage by Genesis P-Orridge.

The eighth track on this CD is an 11'25" interview of Brion Gysin by Genesis P-Orridge. As described in the liner notes, the interview was "[n]ever before published anywhere as either text, or audio. In it Genesis P-Orridge questions BRION GYSIN about his various intersections with legendary Rolling Stone BRIAN JONES in Morocco in the 1960's, as part of his extensive research prior to recording the classic PTV single 'Godstar'. The interview was conducted in Hackney, London on the 10th July 1985. To our knowledge this is the only authentic document stating exactly how Brion Gysin experienced these events, previously only mythologised in both the Astory of Jajouka, and books on The Rolling Stones. On the original cassette box Brion wrote afterwards... ...NIL BONUM MORIENDI DIC ERUNT."
