Fuck De Boere (Dedicated to Johnny Dyani) is a live album of free sessions from these early years, containing two long improvisations, a 1968 recording of "Machine Gun" live (earlier than the studio version) and a longer jam from 1970. The second set of takes from these sessions, called More Nipples, is more raucous.

The album Nipples was recorded in 1969 with many of the Machine Gun musicians, including drummer Han Bennink, pianist Fred Van Hove, and tenor saxophonist Evan Parker, plus British guitarist Derek Bailey. The album was self-produced under his BRO record label imprint and sold at concerts, but it was later marketed by FMP. In 1968 Machine Gun, an octet recording, was released.

For Adolphe Sax, Brötzmann's first recording, was released in 1967 and featured Kowald and drummer Sven-Åke Johansson. Among his first musical partnerships was with double bassist Peter Kowald. He taught himself to play clarinets, then saxophones he is also known for playing the tárogató. Brötzmann has designed most of his album covers. He experienced his first jazz concert when he saw American jazz musician Sidney Bechet while still in school at Wuppertal, and it made a lasting impression. Brötzmann studied painting in Wuppertal and was involved with the Fluxus movement but grew dissatisfied with art galleries and exhibitions.
