This album collects all the material recorded for the Polish Radio by the legendary Polish Rock group Nurt. Founded in Wroclaw in 1970 by guitarist / vocalist / composer Aleksander Mrozek, it also included bassist Kazimierz Cwynar, drummer Ryszard Sroka and vocalist Waldemar Domagala. By the end of 1971 Domagala was replaced by Roman Runowicz, who was previously a member of the no less legendary group Romuald I Roman. The group performed extensively in the early 1970s but managed to record only one eponymous studio album in 1972 for the State owned Muza label, which is now available on a companion CD to this release, and two Polish Radio recording sessions: one before the recording of the album (February 1972) and the other over two years later (May 1974), both present herein.
In retrospect it is clear that Nurt were surely one of the top Polish Rock acts in the early 1970, surely as good as Niemen, SBB and Breakout and in many respects even more adventurous. Their music amalgamated some Blues influences, but basically was all about early Hard Rock, Psychedelia and early Jazz-Rock Fusion. The fact that Polish Jazz legend, trumpeter Tomasz Stanko, participates on the studio album and other Jazz musicians take part in these sessions speaks for itself. The excellent lyrics by their resident writer Andrzej Kurylo were another aspect of the group's high quality output.
