Notes
Midnight Sun [Denmark]
Rainbow Band (70), Midnight Sun (72), Walking Circles (72), Midnight Dream (74)

Another band from Denmark. I found Midnight Sun (recorded around 1971 I guess, published on Teldec) recently and bought it because of the nice cover made by Roger Dean. The music is great Scandinavian jazzrock/fusion-stuff with a strong rock feel, maybe Colosseum or the compatriots Burnin Red Ivanhoe would be a good comparison. Among the six players (bass, guitar, drums, keybords, sax and vocals) is one Peer Frost who is said to be Denmarks best guitar player at that time (as the liner notes say), and he is really excellent. If you find this one, pick it up! Walking Circles also has a great cover by Roger Dean and is like Midnight Sun, so the best comparison is again Colosseum. -- Achim Breiling
