    Upskiboo you deserve a Nobel prize for that find.

    Ha ha, my man Per showed me that record a few years ago but I still haven't got it. Gotta go digging in them Swedish folk bins. Sweden's always been ahead of the curve. For further proof, check Ralph Lundstens "Horrorscope" from 1979:

    Not sure - think it's been rereleased and remixed at least once but as far as I know it hasn't been sampled, at least not used for something big. If so, I'd like to know.

    Another tedious example of americans copying swedish music... When will it end?





    (btw, haven't heard that before, thanks a bunch.)

    Nice to have that on 12"! However, calling it "impossibly rare" is a gross exaggeration.

    ha - sweden has nothing on austria. check this poster for a show by viennese action artist guenter brus from 1968 at a place called "hip-hop":
