Derfra Hvor Vi Stod - Danish Psychedelic Rock 1966-76

Derfra Hvor Vi Stod – Sange Med Merværdi” 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 “Lykkens 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. “Derfra Hvor Vi Stod – Sange Med Merværdi” is very entertaining, going from very amusing to excellent and to sounding dated. A great big thanks to Peter BundgÃ¥rd for bringing these stoned & groovy tunes back to light again.
