Fantasia - Fantasia (1975 fin prog)

From 1975; a Finnish one-shot obscurity which, as far as I can tell, has never been released on CD. Undoubtedly they didn't have much of a recording budget, but they nonetheless managed to put together a fairly unique set of music. Blend Bardens-era Camel with Nuclear Nightclub-era Wigwam, subtract the virtuoso playing, add an unconventional approach to composition and an appreciation for brevity, and you get the idea. It's not a mind-boggler by any stretch, but it has a certain melancholic charm to it, and it deserves a better fate than to be dismissed out of hand. From RYM (reginod)

Finnforest - Finnforest (1975 great finnish jazz prog)

Well played prog fusion; a bit similar to Errobi. Not very rich in content, but nice enough. Recommended.

SPERM - SHH (Fin-Experimental-1970)

posto questo disco sempre su richiesta e come per il precedente post non mi piace!però questo a differenza degli Eroc ha un suo "valore" in quanto è un disco completamente sperimentale (e a quanto pare viene considerato una perla del genere)...Io non apprezzo ma come prima...spero che ci sia qualcuno che apprezzi!

Another request...this is a experimental album by finnish band (btw...i don't like this stuff!!!)!

Beh che dire di questi dischi?!??bellissimi!mi sono piaciuti molto (e mi hanno accompagnato per tutto il solito viaggio quotidiano) Come da titolo del post parliamo di un jazz prog molto buono(devo dire che ho cambiato un po i miei gusti...prima mi sarei avvicinato con un po' di diffidenza a questo genere...) NOn ho canzoni da segnalarvi nel particolare quindi...a voi!
Pekka Pohjola - Harakka Bialoipokku (1974)

Pekka Pohjola - Keesojen Lehto(1976)

I have the version of this album with a white cover and the words "Mike and Sally Oldfield/Pekka Pohjola -- The Consequences of Indecisions", and the Finnish song titles translated into English. I got it because of the Oldfields' involvement, not realizing that it was actually a Pekka Pohjola record, but I'm glad I did because there's a lot of great music here. My favorites are "Hands Calming The Water", a beautiful piece aided greatly by Sally Oldfield's voice, and the stunning "Mathematical Air Display" which indeed sounds a bit mathematical until the song lapses into that exciting, steadily-building midsection featuring some fine guitar work from Mike Oldfield.

Hurriganes - Rock and Roll All Night Long(1973 fin hard rock rock)

Hurriganes - Roadrunner (1974 fin hard rock-rock)

The boys offer entertaining good-timey rock'n'roll, from the hilariously nonsensical "Get On" - all attitude and no point whatsoever - to the smoking covers of "Tallahassee Lassie" and "Roadrunner". "I Will Stay" is even rather pretty. The two tracks credited entirely or in part to 'Mister X' (producer Richard Stanley) aren't quite as good as the rest of the material, but this album is still lots of fun from start to finish.

Tabula Rasa - Tabula Rasa (1975 great fin folk prog)

The first question I heard this album was 'Is this Jethro Tull?'. Tabula Rasa sounds a bit like Jethro Tull because of it's instruments but it has sort of finnish stamp on it. Gryf is my favorite song on this album.

Tabula Rasa - Ekkedien tanssi(1976)

This album is a fine prog effort, and second this is a beautiful soft rock with good keys and guitars. The first track (i will not mention the titles, because are hard to write), the album's name is a great opener with smooth guitar and keys. To me this album really sound symphonic, and is not bad, maybe a little to mellow. Sometimes sounds like Kaipa, but more vague in contrast with what was made by prog bands in mid '70. 3 stars, still enjoyble to me, if for you, listen and convince yourself that is not so bad album after all. Similar band is Nova (also from Finland).
