about

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!
