This album, released in 1981 from the Mood Records label founded by German guitarist Volker Kriegel, who has also participated in bands like Passport and United Jazz+Rock Ensemble, features collaborations with Wolfgang Dauner, Albert Mangelsdorff, Ack Van Rooyen, and others. Notable musicians such as the Stroer brothers Hans-Peter and Ernst, as well as Eberhard Weber, who have released masterpieces on the same label, contribute to the album. Tracks like the exotic A1, where sitar and synthesizers intertwine with gentle tabla rhythms, and the pleasant A4, characterized by the floating sensation of string synthesizers combined with clear sounds of guitar and vibraphone, showcase a crossover sound that blends New Age sensibilities with a rich variety. This masterpiece is highly recommended for fans of the Pat Metheny Group and similar artists.
