Special crossover music, chosen by Ton Maas. Martin Kolbe & Ralf Illenberger – forgotten guitar virtuosos.
By the end of the 1970s the guitar duo Martin Kolbe & Ralf Illenberger caused a modest stir in Germany. Inspired by illustrious predecessors such as Ralph Towner & John Abercrombie, but definitely also by Bert Jansch & John Renbourn, they deftly intertwined folk, classical and jazz, joined by keyboardist Wolfgang Dauner and bass player Eberhard Weber.
