A Munich jazz-fusion big band, fronted by Peter Trunk (a veteran of the Frankfurt jazz scene apparently) and in fact an international band of exceptional talent. Peter Trunk's aim was to twist the rock format into something different by using jazz instruments and jazz improvisation. Not an original concept, compare Niagara's S.U.B., From, Sunbirds, et al., all are comparable. This album however, is what persuaded Curt Cress to move from rock to jazz, in that he saw jazz-fusion as opening many new possibilities.
