Usually referred under the name of the keybordist Max Greger Jr.
Presonaly think it as nice, but little too nice to be a classic as it lacks the edge of the better Euro Jazz / fusion of the day...
First came to attention of the Prog collectors due to it's use of mellotron (circa late 80s I recall), then later re-discovered by the rare groove crowd, and now considered as a major rarity in that field.
cool stuff, thanks for sharing
my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.
This album is also very well recorded , rich & full.

In the mail order lists of the golden era of record collecting (80s-mid90s), the album was referred as Catch Up "Vol. 1". The album has been reissued on CD by Green Tree in the mid-90s.
There is another album "Birth Of The Second Life" but it is credited to Catch Up II with a richer sound, as it introduced wind instruments to the core line-up of Max Greger Jr. and Milan Pilar.
that was one cool piece
how does the rest of the album compare I wonder
Why is it whenever someone mentions an artist that was clearly progressive (yet not the Symph weenie definition of Prog) do certain people feel compelled to snort "thats not Prog" like a whiny 5th grader?
What a label name...

The second one sounds good also!

Pretty nice, I like it too. A friend recommended this album to me who collects a lot of prog. I had never heard of them and the Gibraltar didn't have much on them other than they're German from 1971. Pretty jazzy, horns here and there, spacey, tron, etc. But a pretty good album.
I have Ikarus in itunes, early 70s proto prog x 10!
