Out of stock

Remastered edition of an intriguing international project from the mid-70s. A meeting of jazz and rock that goes far beyond what is usually considered fusion. Originally released in 1976, the album "Electric Circus" was the second solo project of German guitarist Toto Blanke, but at the same time the beginning of an unusual trio formed by the Dutch pianist Jasper van't Hof and Finnish drummer Edward Vesala (known in Poland thanks to his collaboration with Tomasz Stańko). Three very strong individualities proposed a very specific, original look at jazz-rock, full of surprising experiments with synthesisers, references to krautrock and avant-garde, but also soothing, ethereal themes. New edition, remastered from the original Bellaphon tapes. Booklet with lyrics by Barnaby Siegel based on an actual interview with Jasper van't Hof. First release on the new Chickadisc label, dedicated to European (and non-European) jazz and rock pearls of yesteryear.
