COUNTRY: Germany
THE BAND:
Jan Fride / drums, percussion; Helmut Hattler / bass, vocals; Johannes Pappert / Alto saxophone; Peter Wolbrandt / guitar, vocalsThis is for me an interesting diversion into Fusion/Jazz. I put this on just to test myself and to get out of my comfort zone again. I know next to nothing about Fusion/Jazz, but I love RETURN TO FOREVER. KRAAN is on a totally different level again than RTF. KRAAN are more down the Kraut and Space rock street than up the dynamic, jazzy RTF street. From what I gather, KRAAN do a mix of Krautrock, Spacerock and Fusion. With the exception from the opening track, there is not much Jazz on this album. Which is my main gripe with it.... I really like the Jazzy parts. I am not keen on the Krautrock parts of the album. They are sadly lacking in quality and sounds imposed on the otherwise good Fusion parts.
I like most of this album and I recommend it to those into both Krautrock and Fusion.
