Derfra Hvor Vi Stod - Danish Psychedelic Rock 1966-76
The full title of this 3-cd box-set is Derfra Hvor Vi Stod - Sange Med Mervrdi: En Bevidshedsudvidende rejse I dansk rock fra 1966 to 1976. Translated into english that would be something like From Where We Stood Songs With Vat (or added value, its one of those clever puns that cant be easily translated): A Mind-expanding Journey Through Danish Rock From 1966 to 1976. The bands featured on this compilation are some of the best from this period, if you are familiar with the genre you will probably recognize some of them when reading the tracklist. The first two cd`s are like a “Best of Danish psych/acid rock, though other genres are featured here as well. The music on these two albums is hard to find at best. The third cd contains previously unreleased tracks that you wont find anywhere else.
Derfra Hvor Vi Stod Sange Med Mervrdi is an impressive documentation of a musical history. The three cd`s contains no less than 57 songs from the cradle of danish progressive music. The artist, painter, writer and hippie Peder Bundgaard has been allowed to compile the soundtrack to his youth and his book œLykkens Pamfil. The songs are all from the period 1966 1976, and Peter Bundgaard music of choice was Danish acid-rock, performed by Young Flowers, Ache, Blue Sun, Old Man & The Sea and all the other acid-heads that flipped out inside a fog of hash-smoke and other chemicals. When the flute played an important part in rock-music and it was perfectly ok to sound like a copy of Cream of Jefferson Airplane. The music on these cd`s are innocent in a way that is nowhere to be found in contemporary music, but we are after all talking about the birth of Danish progressive rock the cradle of it to be exact where the acid-rock had one guitar-sound and bare breasts were something new. This is a chapter of Danish rock-history that is all but forgotten today, but that does not make the music any less interesting to listen to. œDerfra Hvor Vi Stod Sange Med Mervrdi is very entertaining, going from very amusing to excellent and to sounding dated. A great big thanks to Peter Bundgrd for bringing these stoned & groovy tunes back to light again..
