Interview with Pepl in the trade magazine for musicians. He names Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Wes Montgomery as his real teachers and describes his guitars and effects chain, teaching at the university in Graz, Austria, and his plans: steirischer herbst with Humair and Portal, festivals in France and Warsaw, the band Air Mail and an LP in early 1985 with Don Moye and Pirchner. He names playing with Keith Jarrett and Miles Davis as a wish. The cover and table of contents of the issue are attached to the portrait.

Brigitte Oberleitner
Review of the concert by Pepl, Pirchner and Don Moye at the Münzgrabenheim in Graz, Austria, on Thursday, 7 March 1985. The reviewer compares the rush of audience with that for the Michel Portal Unit the year before, singles out Moye on the cymbals and points to the ECM record with DeJohnette.
One of the musicians who, whatever formation they play in, are a draw for the public, is the guitarist Harry Pepl.

R. Herbolzheimer
Review of the concert by Pepl, Pirchner and Moye at the “Münzl” in Graz, Austria: music of great tension and many facets, in which the dialogues of vibraphone and guitar succeed as only musicians who know each other like brothers can manage.
Pirchner’s and Pepl’s dialogues on vibraphone and guitar as good as is only possible with musicians who know each other like brothers.
