This is an album released in 1983 from the Mood Records label, founded by German guitarist Volker Kriegel, who has also participated in Passport and United Jazz+Rock Ensemble, along with Wolfgang Dauner, Albert Mangelsdorff, Ack Van Rooyen, and others. The Stroer brothers, Hans Peter Stroer (b, syn, p) and Ernst Stroer (perc, ds), as well as Eberhard Weber (b), participated in this album. It features tension-filled, modal-like jazz fusion in track A2, pleasant contemporary jazz with an atmospheric sound in track B1, and organic ethnic jazz with flute and sitar intertwining with exotic percussion rhythms in track B2. The listener is captivated by the excellent compositions crafted by Hans Peter Stroer.
A2: Buschtaxi
B2: Bamako
