Album Notes & Community Reviews

German progressive outfit Sahara shifted toward a more polished and symphonic style on 'For All the Clowns'. While maintaining the experimental edge of Krautrock, the band incorporated rich keyboard textures and elaborate compositional suites that aligned them closer to the British prog-rock aesthetic.
