Album Notes & Community Reviews
Operating on the jazzy periphery of the German krautrock scene, this entirely instrumental sophomore effort focuses heavily on intricate flute and guitar interplay. The rhythm section is notably muscular, propelling the compositions through complex, shifting jazz-rock time signatures without sacrificing their melodic core. It is a highly respected, fluid example of 1970s European progressive fusion.
