German bass player Sigi Busch: The Age of Miracles (1975) [FLAC] and A New Way of Living (1980)

 

Like so many others this gentleman has appeared before on these blog 'pages' for ex. he was a member of the group Jazz Track if you recall them from back here.  As well, mentioned in connection with Attila Zoller and the great Toto Blanke here.  Importantly for the fusion fan he was in Pierre Courbois' Association PC in the early 70s.  In addition he played with Manfred Schoof who I really love, and have posted a few times too.  The discogs intro:

Siegfried „Sigi“ Busch is a German jazz bass player, born on 29 October 1943 in Krefeld. He has published several textbooks on bass playing and music theory and used to teach at the Jazz-Institut Berlin as a professor (now retired).  On his releases as a band leader and on his (now defunct) personal website the abbreviation Sigi is used for his first name, but some releases to which he has contributed have occasionally credited him as Siggi Busch.

The Age of Miracles with both a lovely title and lovely cover painting with its deep dark hues and gorgeous flower boasts the presence of both Wolfgang Dauner and Charlie Mariano, consider as sample the title track:

From A New Way, which is just as good though from 1980, I love the oddly titled Strango Flango:
