Back in 1990, Ottmar Liebert and Higher Octave Music came of age in a simultaneous burst of symbiotic energy-a perfect marriage between artist and label. The definitive Ottmar Liebert sound resides in his seminal early recordings, with their purity of musical expression and their innovative excitement, coupled with that indefinable yet essential Higher Octave ambience. On this first retrospective collection, the accent is on Liebert's upbeat and mid-tempo songs.
