The first album released in 1978 by Carsten Bohn's Bandstand, a project led by German drummer Carsten Bohn. The guitarist Roman Bunka, a former member of Embryo, participates in this album. It features a variety of styles, including rock, jazz, soul, funk, and folk, with tracks like A1, which combines acoustic guitar and electric piano over a dry rhythmic section to create a lively folk Balearic vibe, and B2, which features funky beats, progressive guitar, and soulful female vocals over a jazz-funk foundation, creating an emotional fusion. The album absorbs these influences and leans towards crossover/fusion, developing a sound reminiscent of a groovier version of mid-period Gugu Gugu, brimming with originality.
A1: Today in the City
B2: For Better or Verse
