So Einfach Ist Das
These recordings are indeed a minor sensation! It's hard to imagine that, apart from the well-known recordings in the GDR, something "different and deeper" existed in the late 1960s alongside appealing soul and jazz bands. Modern and progressive fuzzy and funky jazz rock. Really? But yes, "So einfach war das wohl / it was probably that simple" back then. The highly talented pianist Ulrich Gumpert played and composed in one of the country's most renowned ensembles, the Klaus Lenz Orchestra, since…

The project began as keyboardist Stefano Sabatini's poignant response to the 1972 car accident that claimed two members of his previous band Free Love - a catastrophe that could have ended his musical journey. Instead, Sabatini assembled a new quartet to create what would become one of progressive jazz-rock's most emotionally charged instrumental statement…
