Solid psych from I think Norway but I don't know for sure. Comparisons
to other Scandinavian bands are difficult because I don't know of any.
Comparisons to other psychedelic bands is also difficult. They
sometimes have a bluesy Cream sound at other times stick with organ-led
psych that could have similarities in some American garage music. With
the longer jams, the band is not too far divorced from the effects of
early Pink Floyd. "Green Things" is an eclectic opener with a fantastic
rhythm all the way through and solid horn piece towards the end.
"Emptiness Gone" is a bluesier number with great harmonies and
background organ. "Ain't No Use" is an organ-guitar freakout with
frenetic guitar riffs and fantastic organ manipulation that at times
echoes early Floyd. "Driftin" is the total opposite of the previous
song with its soft vocals, Latin-sound, and laid back delivery. "I'm
Counting on You" is simply a solid blues-rock song that easily keeps the
listeners attention. "Night of the Lonely Organist and his Mysterious
Pals" is another instrumental jam but with less emphasis on psychedelic
guitar and the organ is not as spacey and psychedelic as on the first
jam. "You're Right About Me" is about as close as the band gets to a
pure pop sound, even throwing in some good back and forth female
harmonies. The band adapts to different genres well and while the
lyrics are sometimes less than poignant, the vocalist is very solid. Discogs

A highly interesting album for all fans of fusion/ECM giant Terje Rypdal. Showing that his legendary dreamy guitarsound is firmly based in 60s psychedelia. Essential listening.
Amazing psych album.Many thanks for this...
