Forbidden Blue by Volker Gieseks Colorbox
The first COLORBOX album, originally released in 1995.
Eight of my early Fusion Jazz compositions and one of saxophonist Robby Siemens.
Back then, I was so happy and proud to get the chance to record my compositions with such fine musicians – and still am.
Read the album’s Making-Of „Die Forbidden Blue Story“ (in german language) on my Blog Around Sound (link under my bio to the right).
When listening back to the album after all those years, I think that at least "Forbidden Blue", "Peace of Mind", "A Flash From Brown Eyes", "The Barking Fish" and "You Around" stood the test of time.
Enjoy!
