Cyklus ‎– Planet Of Two Suns (1979, LP, Germany)



Cyklus is a very unknown and underrated ?70 jazz fusion band from Germany who has only one album in their pocket. The album was relesed at Erlkonig label in july 1979 and named Planet of two suns. The album they release is uniquie in his own way , because while more than half is towards ligher sound of jazz fusion not far from Passport or even in places Return to Forever, they have more rougher moments who can pleases every jazz rock listner or progressive fan in same time with complex and subtile arrangements. They never hit big time with their music maybe because they pay too much the year they began their career ? late ?70?s, when prog music was in decline . Well this band like many others from that period is like a kick in the face for those who said that prog/jazz music is dead and not intristing anymore. , 3 members from Cyklus were before this in another german jazz fusion band Aera: matz Steinke from bass, Achim Gieseler - keys and Wofgang Teske drums.
