This is the only longplayer by the austrian singer and actor Hans Hass Jr. who became quite famous in Germany for a cover version of American Pie in 1972.

I call this a wonderfull and emotional album. Can't say if this is ambient jazz or new age ;)  But in the end I don't care about words anyway. It's those shivers the music gives me.

One of those records that doesn't want to be discovered. First of all it's really tough to come by. Once you locate it and listen you may find that it seems to be filled with senseless pop all the way through the album.

Excellent album recorded in the golden years of private pressings. Sun is one of those groups who mingle funky jazzrock with latin rhythms adding a touch of progressive - without sounding like Santana :) Infact they're so funky that i almost labelled it a Krautfunk album. Strong horn section and their affinity to the boogie (not woogie ;) is hard to find among german musicians...

Style: Folk-Jazz

Format: LP
Label: TTS (Private?)

Year: 1983

Condition: NM/VG+  incl. insert and xeroxed newspaper bits

Folk-Jazz? Mmh, maybe it sounds more like a mix of Jazz and Progressive. Probably the intense use of the flute gives me that folky feel. Ad Libitum are actually playing with various styles on their only album. On side A we find mostly covers. Two Focus compositions (House Of The King, Anonymus- Janis-Anonymus), one by Ekseption (Rondo Alla Turka), a great flute lead Take Five rework as well as a surprisingly good cover of Stevie Wonder's You Are The Sunshine Of My Life. On the b-side there 's just one: Blood Sweat and Tear's Sometimes in Winter. The remaining four tunes are self penned. And these are the secret hits of the album. My fave is Ottochen's Mondfahrt. Starts off very "jazzy" played over an uptempo disco beat, breaking down into a desert storm like synth & electric piano part - yet returning to the uptempo flute disco again. Visionen and Persischer Markt are highlights as well.

Kraut Funk at it's BEST! Starting off with a superfunky jam session incl. soli for everyone in the band. Kemmler on guitar is blowing them other players to the walls of the studio. He‘s showing some more of his funky guitar skills in the second track called Chris The Fusionist. One thing very remarkable for a private german Fusion LP from 1983: It has RAPS! And they are a lot better than you‘d expect from a german (forget about Falco!). More fusion madness on the B- Side in Rebirth Of The Firebirds and they‘re closing with a mellow track called It Could Be. Smooth... Check the long clip!

The first thing I thought when listening to this album was: 1971. They must have fucked up the production date on the cover. This kind of singer songwriter style soft psychedelic can't be from 1981. Well some clocks tick different. Saskia's clock ticks very gently and I think the musicians might have had an affinity for Affinity. That should make you curious.

An unexpected acid folk nugget from Germany. Herberg really nails it on his second and harder to find album. Looks like another one of those traditional pingerpicking things but it's a psychedelic bomb exploding very gently. The b-side has a strong apricot brandy taste. Especially the 14 minute long jam Leaving  L.A. "... So watch the clouds, They are drifting in the sky, And feel the river, He's floating by, bye, bye, good bye. And there ain't no reason why , You should look up and cry, No Message will reach you, And no god will teach you, The Reason Why.

DIY Italo Disco made in Hannover, Germany 1986. There's not much information available about Cocy. Computermixage seems to be the only thing he ever recorded. That kind of correlates with his talent. Soundwise this album can't compete with the big studios in Italia and the tunes are played, produced and sung very badly. All in all one of the most obscure things on this planet with the Italo Disco sticker on it. A truly fantastic album full of moments where screaming out loud out of disbelief is the only possible reaction. If you like it weird THIS IS YOUR GRAIL.
