TOMMOROWS GIFT השני לא מזכיר אפילו את הראשון. הוא הרבה יותר טוב מכל בחינה אפשרית. תראה מה כתבו: The five-piece Tomorrow's Gift split up in 1971, but Manfred Rurup and Bernd Kiefer kept the band going. They recruited "Zabba" Lindner from Sphinx Tush and recorded Goodbye Future (1972) as a trio, an ironic title considering the name of the group! This album was technically better, as the engineering and production were handled by Konrad Plank. The sound of Tomorrow's Gift had changed completely and now leaned towards instrumental jazz-rock with forceful keyboard and bass interplay. It was indeed a very varied album: Canterbury-influenced jazz-rock with improvised free jazz parts (a bit comparable to the first Annexus Quam album), general Zappa-esque weirdness and musical jokes. The album wasn't released until a year after the recordings were completed. Then at last Spiegelei/Aamok released it in a funny die-cut round hole cover. In January 1973 they were joined by guitarist Uli Trepte, previously of Guru Guru, with whom they performed live. Half a year later Trepte quit and was replaced with sax and clarinet player Norbert Jacobsen. This new quartet changed their name Release Music Orchestra and recorded five albums for Brain. Original guitarist Carlo Karges later worked with groups as different as Novalis, Extrabreit and Nena. He also guested on the Release Music Orchestra album Get The Ball (1976). Manfred Rurup later recorded with Carsten Bohn's Bandstand, Elephant and lnga Rumpf. ובקשר לפרוג, זה תמיד כיף לשמוע אלבומים כאלו, אין ספק. איך אתה עם NICK DRAKE? אחד האמנים האהובים עלי בכל הזמנים.... מידד
