Swedish garage/psych/hard rock trio. Formed 1968 and soon gathered a cult following playing club gigs in Stockholm before recording this debute album. If You fancy early hard rock, acid and flower-power mashed together and don't mind the lyrics are in Swedish it's certainly worth a spin or two. Though clearly influenced by Hendrix, Cream and early Leslie West/Mountain they manage to create their very own sound - hard but also melodic and downright exuberant. Produced by Roger Wallis with a clear and natural audio. All very well performed and the guitars absolutely smashing. On their next two albums the music would get heavier and slower, but here it's still fresh, fast and filled with energy. (An exemple : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ1StBc8PbU ). Originally released in Sweden only, re-issued as CD 1993 by Sonet (SLPCD 2509), on vinly and CD by Universal 2012 (060252797980). Re-issued twice in the seventies on vinyl by Sonet, with different label designs. Very first with label as shown here, thick unflexible vinyl and fully laminated cover. (SCÄ*)(CCÖ*)(SÖNÄ*)
