It all started at the "Weisser Wind" of Zürich, in April 1971. Seven Swiss, three Danes, an American and a Swede, played the whole evening of the 27th, experimenting new sounds and melodies, for all the free jazz lovers. This so dense album is properly a chronological history of music.This album is an astonishing combination of fusion, modern classical, jazz, and that ethnic component typical of advanced Germanic music. It's surprising this was made in 1971. Like Soft Machine 3, it's a double-LP with each side featuring one track.
