Aunt Mary - Aunt Mary CD
SKU
NACD 197
"Self-titled" 1970 album from the Norvegian band Aunt Mary may be considered as one of the first (and, possibly, the best) progressive rock product from this country. Eleven tracks present an interesting mixture of psychedelic, blues and jazz with some prog tendencies.
Each track has a memorable melody with short, but sweet to ears solo part from musicians. Jan Groth with his Hammond makes a unique atmosphere on tracks like "Whispering farewell" and "Rome wasn't bult in one day". Alongside with guitarist Bjorn Christiansen they provide some strong vocal - separetly and together.
Their fromula of keyboard-oriented progressive rock later will be used by such legendary norvegian groups as Popol Vuh and Titanic, but musicians from Aunt Mary were the first on this way. Great album by a great band! Should be heard by any lover of early prog."-ProgArchives
