Austria, 1976, jazz fusion / avant-prog

Hermann Szobel – Szobel: This is what it’s all about: finding not only the obscure gems but the mysterious ones. Here’s a perfect jazz fusion album by a genius pianist, and then he disappears. This is the excitement archaeologists must feel when they unearth and share with others some significant artifact. Creative, funky virtuosity on display here. A lot of piano exploration, serious in its playfulness. This dude wrote and created one amazing jazz album when he was 18 and then disappeared. He was last seen in Israel, where he thought he was Jesus.
