Funky, fantastic, and nicely tripped-out - one of the legendary MPS classics by the Dave Pike Set of the late 60s - a combo that did a great job of mixing Dave's vibes with some headier sounds and psychedelic elements! There's a warmth here that's missing from some of the other Pike dates for MPS - wonderful tones that really show Dave growing a lot as an artist, and settling into a beautiful working relationship with guitarist Volker Kriegel - who also plays some sitar and electric bass on the record too! Main bass bits, though, are handled by JA Rettenbacher - who's got this bottom sense of flow that's really wonderful - kind of a building swell that works perfectly, no matter what the flavor of the tune - and there's a mighty nice array of flavors on the set. The group's completed by drummer Peter Baumeister, who's no slouch either
