Young Flowers - Blomsterpistolen/No.2 (1968/1969)

At last on CD, the fine 1968 debut from the famous Danish '60s psychedelic band. Packed full of fuzzed up guitars and with acid jams a plenty, you also get their 1969 album as well. Including an electrifying 10 minute jam session with Burning Red Ivanhoe. Superb stuff! Freak Emporium

The musicians from Young Flowers had a great influence on danish progrock in the late sixties and the beginning of the seventies:
Band: Peter Ingemann, Peer Frost (Rainbow Band, Midnight Sun, Savage Rose) Ken Gudmann (Culpepers Orchard, Defenders, Danish Sharks)

Thank you so very much Lisa - I have tried to get these for many years! I once heard a tape of some of their stuff and they blew my mind - they sounded like a mix of Cream, Canned Heat, Spirit, The Doors and even a bit like U2.

Thank you, thank you, thank you from Bill!!!!

Thank you remindig me that Young Flowers were an amasing band, it turned ot that I still have the original vinyl recond as goos as new, at the time it eas released, I like far most danes didnt apreaciate the freaky attitude. By the way Savage Rose still exist, one of the mainfounders died in US last months.

This is a freaking great album :D Love the slurry, druggy way the vocalist sounds. Guess the band spent a lot of time in Kristiania...;)Pretty freaky lyrics too "..men jeg er syg.." etc. Thanks a lot for sharing & keep up the good work!!
