A more acoustic and complex offering from that period in the early eighties when the Germans could musically do no wrong, this features the more intellectual side of the artistic zeitgeist versus the smooth radio-friendly side as evidenced by Oktagon. Very beautiful and ECM-dreamy-like, I marvel that this period had to end... why did it have to end? Ah yes, now I remember: Nena and her "Neunundneunzig Luftballons"...
