Recorded 1980. At the time Weber’s Colours group was one of the most highly-acclaimed bands on the international touring circuit. Colours combined a sense of jazz history (personified by ex-Charles Mingus saxophonist Charlie Mariano) with an awareness of the pattern-pulses of the minimalist composers (emphasised in Weber’s writing for Brüninghaus’s synthesizers) and the energy of jazz-rock (drummer Marshall had played with Soft Machine and Jack Bruce).
