Dave Quincy: âThis Radio Bremen live session in 1975 is probably the last recording made by Zzebra before the band split, and it exemplifies how bands can be before their time, with the Prog. Rock Afro Jazz still standing up
nearly 50 years on.'
John McCoy: âThis is one such night with its typical high and low moments, still improvising, taking musical risks but overall having a great time with a totally unique band. Enjoy!'
