SVANFRIDUR - What's Hidden There? - EU Prog Gems Limited Edition - VERY RARE - LISTEN

A great-sounding and attractive-looking reissue of the only, but splendid, album by an Icelandic band, recorded in 1972 in London and originally released privately by the band. The Svanfridur musicians played ambitious and very atmospheric, classic progressive rock, with distinct influences of psychedelia, folk, jazz and heavy sounds. The quartet's music can be roughly described as a combination of the style of Jethro Tull (with far less flute), Wishbone Ash, Gnidrolog, Curved Air and East Of Eden. It was decidedly British playing, but with a large dose of Scandinavian gloom and melancholy - very sophisticated, a bit hard to take in at once, but in its own way orderly and ear-catching. Almost every fan of good old rock should be delighted with this record! Currently the first edition in perfect condition is worth 1000 euros! A MUST! Condition: New, sealed. (JL)
