COUS COUS

Björn J:son Lindh's third studio record from 1972 is a pleasant bit of music. Björn and the other musicians are very talanted and this is absolutely music worth listening to. On Cous Cous J:son Lindh takes his inspiration from eastern neighborhoods. This is music for everybody loving flute in progressive rock because this is totally flute driven music.

This is a good recording with many interesting compositions. The best track is "Elastic springtime" which is a perfect seventies mood composition with speed and and sheer happiness. Also "My machine", "Good time Charlie's got the blues", "The Booster Bump" and the long orientalic psychedelic "Abdo" are nice pieces for music lovers.

The negative I have to say about this album is that it is too smooth and nice. He should have been more experimental. This is nice but not very exciting.
