HIGH-SPEED KINDERGARTEN

MUNJU were a Jazz flavoured Krautrock band with Jurgen Benz formerly of MISSUS BEASTLY leading the way with his sax and flute. No keyboards but drums, bass, guitar and congas on two tracks. No vocals either other than when they all try to act silly like kids on the title track. It's actually pretty funny. Not huge on the style of the guitarist, he likes to pick. The time when he lights it up sounds really good but clearly that's not his preferred style. That light show was on "Talk To Me But I Listen To You", a catchy track with sax mostly leading the way. My favourite is "Patschamenga Underground" and while the sax and guitar solo it's the bass that impresses me the most here. The first two tracks are the long ones both around 9 minutes and we get plenty of jamming with the guitar, sax or flute usually soloing over top. Like the followup to this we get a pretty good album but this is nothing like my favourites who play in a similar style.
