Heavy Joker was a Danish short-lived Jazz/Fusion act, found in mid-70's by ex-Thors Hammer members Michael Bruun (guitars, keyboards) and Henrik Bødtcher (bass, also of Buki-Yamaz fame) along with keyboardist Max Leth Jun and drummer Jan Sivertsen. They debuted in 1976 with a self-titled album on Polydor. The opening side of the LP contains five tracks, each credited to a different member and guest keyboardist Kasper Winding, with "Canasta Funk" featuring also sax player Anders Gardmand. The music is mostly excellent, keyboard-based Prog/Fusion with also some fiery guitar at moments and plenty of shifting moods, ranging from breezy Fusion with dominant synths to Canterbury-styled jazzy Prog with powerful keyboard work, electric piano and fast tempos. Still Heavy Joker's approach reveals a strong melodic content at moments as in "Heavy Joke" and "Ambrosia", characterized by light symphonic Focus-like melodious themes and great keyboard/piano treatments. The flipside contains the great long 20-min. instrumental opus "Symphonia", composed by Max Leth Jun and divided in four parts. It marks no significant changes to the style already presented, maybe the guitars of Michael Bruun and the keyboard overtones have a Latin-flavor at moments, but the overall approach is demanding still easy-listening Prog/Fusion with superb diversity and strong presence of percussion, sax, vibraphone and marimba.From keyboard-led interventions to jazzy sax solos and from ethnic tunes to virtuosic solos, "Symphonia" is a decent and tight instrumental journey, mixing the aesthetics of Jazz and Prog/Fusion in equal doses. Very good, still pretty unknown debut by these Danish masters, with both technical and melodic parts. Strongly recommended, and even more if you are deep into jazzy Prog.Tracklist:
