Tomorrow's Gift - Goodbye Future. 1973 Germany

Goodbye Future is Tomorrow's Gift's second album and completely different than the debut. Gone are the female vocals, heavy guitars, and general Krautrock proto prog 1971 mayhem, and in its place is a keyboard centered Canterbury styled album. Not too far from same period Supersister (think Pudding En Gisteren), especially considering the additional and obvious Frank Zappa influence. It's a very satisfying album on the whole, and yet it feels like it should have been just that much better.

Tomorrow's Gift later evolved into the fusion oriented Release Music Orchestra. They also participated in the long-past-its-shelf-life Krautrock psych band Dennis as well.

Ownership: LP: 1973 Spiegelei. Gatefold with die cut cover. Acquired from VVV in Dallas (1988).

Quite surprising that this album - and the entire Release Music Orchestra catalog - remain without a CD reissue. And that remains true as I update this post 6/4/24.
