ÜBERFALL “so uferlos im Abendwind”

CHF 15.00

“Best of” from the LPs “… In alle Ewigkeit”, “Neuschnee” & “Nr. 3”

“But Überfall’s main attraction is Markus Stauss and his absolutely unique sax-playing style. He re-invented the sax in much the same way that Ian Anderson has made with the flute … By weaving vibrant, hectic and free-flowing bitter-sweet melodies – without loosing his technical expertise –Stauss takes the central position that once belonged to the guitar-hero, turning anyone who dislikes saxophones into an idolater of the instrument.” (Marcelo Trotta, progressiverockbr.com 7.6.2010)
