Globetrotter

Over the last five decades, Krautrock forerunners Guru Guru have been breaking boundaries, experimenting with free jazz, rock’n’roll, Indian, South East Asian and African rhythms and scales to create their own brand of psychedelic cosmic rock. This reissue of their acclaimed 1977 album is an excellent exponent of their global experiment, done flawlessly. Recorded after long stays in India in the mid 1970s, Globetrotter is a landmark album in the Guru Guru discography. GURU GURU have been an institution for over five decades. Forerunners of Krautrock, the group, founded in 1968 by drummer, singer and visionary Mani Neumeier, have been breaking boundaries since the beginning, fusing free jazz with rock’n’roll, experimenting with Indian, Southeast Asian and African rhythms and styles, to create their own brand of psychedelic cosmic rock, inspiring musicians and audiences the world over, especially in the United States and Japan. Released in 1977, Globetrotter is inspired by Mani and Roland’s many long stays in India between 1974 and 1976, reflecting their travels and global impressions. The album was recorded in their commune in the depth of the Odenwald by Petrus Wippel and mixed by Conny Plank in his studio. Besides Roland Schaeffer, Peter Kuehmstedt, Jogi Karpenkel and of course Mani Neumaier, Globetrotter features Ingo Bischoff on keys, Tommi Goldschmidt and Larry on percussions, Helmut Hattler on additional bass, Sepp Jandrisits on guitar and Michael Pilz on bass clarinet.
