5 stars Norway....who can remember music coming from Norway?? Well i can!!! Aunt mary!!! At the age of 22 i was in the so called "hippie culture" and mind you,i enjoyed it!! Sometime in the late seventies i heard an incredible album at a friends house... as those were the times of "funny tobacco" i were not quite alert of whom i heard. But this music keept roaming in my mind...so i asked my friend...what was this wonderfull music we heard!!?? Mind you, it were the times of UK and Us music rules!! So when this friend announced: Thats a Norwegian band called : Aunt mary!! I was...sort of....yeah right!!?? But truth be told..they were Norvegians..and what an album it was/is....i would without hesitation..name it the "Sgt. Pepper" of Aunt mary. Oh..YES..my prog friends..it is that good!! Composed and arranged... and indeed recorded in five months!! Its incredible. Yet true.....this is an absolute GEM (progfreaks take note)never have a Norvegian group made this impact on me!!! This is a ...and i write this in capital LETTERS...... an absolute STUNNER of an album...vocals to kill for...keyboards to die for.... arrangements to be believed....music to...well yeah....you have to hear this.... I promise you (dear reader) that this record will change your (musical) life!!! I dont know what these guys were on....but i cant tell you...straight from my heart.. never have i heard such...well performed..well executed..lovely music album!! Still after all these years!! Im A M A Z E D !!! Sadly i cannot give 6 stars......so therefore 5 stars!!!!!!!
