A progressive rock legend from Switzerland. The debut album from 1976, on which the musicians travel through not always obvious musical lands, equipped with unusual instruments. The material is released for the first time in Europe on CD.

CIRCUS was founded in 1972 in Basel, evolving from a ten-piece big band exploring the borderland of jazz and rock. Under a new name and with a reduced line-up, they began to create a very individual model of progressive rock, defying comparisons. This was helped by the unusual instrumentation, in which there was no room for keyboard instruments and an electric guitar - instead there was a flute, a saxophone or a vibraphone, as well as an acoustic guitar processed in various ways. The band's debut album, originally released in 1976, is five extensive compositions, which include cantilena vocal parts, daring solo parts, and surprising musical twists. The musicians wanted to destroy unnecessary barriers and divisions between genres and sounds - the effect is still very intriguing, eclectic and surprising. Elements of folk, jazz and classic progressive rock combine into a completely new whole.

"Circus" is released in Europe for the first time on CD, remastered from the original tapes by Noah Mintz (Toronto, Canada) in 2021. The booklet contains a short sketch about music, lyrics and unpublished photos.
