Album Description
Very few people only are able to name Roine STOLT's first professional band ! Even though he seems to have an eternally young face, TRANSATLANTIC's famous guitarist was already a veteran when he created the quite famous THE FLOWER KINGS. The answer ?
Twenty years earlier, this very young Swedish musician was "only" one of KAIPA's members, the band of the excellent keyboardist Hans LUNDIN, now re-formed for the outstanding "Notes From The Past" (A undeniable success, applauded in the year 2001 by both fans and critics !). However, it was not a one-time project ! A proof of this is that Musea has re-issued three albums of this leading Seventies Scandinavian Progressive rock band. With such references, we could expect some high-quality standards, especially given that the guitar riffs already showed their author's genius. Even though they are mostly instrumental, the eponymous album (1974), "Inget Nytt Under Solen" (1976) and "Solo" (1978) benefit from the warmth of the Swedish tongue (With some previously unreleased tracks sung in English). Their influences can be traced back to such varied styles as Progressive rock (CAMEL, YES, GENESIS
), classical music (BACH
) or local folklore. The enormous success of those re-issues places KAIPA among Musea's best sales, and shows, as if it were not evident, this original music's great value
Each album also includes some previously unreleased tracks !...

If You Love Prog..........2007-04-01
Frankly, I had never heard of Kaipa when the band was new on the scene even though I was listening to other progressive rock groups at the time. FM radio in the US, even the so-called underground stations, rarely offered anything besides English language music. So although I was able to hear some wonderful and obscure bands in underground radio's heyday, I largely missed out on all kinds of great music from beyond the English-speaking world. But in this new millenium I have been turned on to all kinds of previously inaccessible music and through the medium of guitar wizard Roine Stolt, to Kaipa as well.
Even if you can't understand a word of Swedish, if you love prog rock, you are going to love Inget Nytt Under Solen. Oh, it may take you a couple of listens to become comfortable with it, but once you do you will be able to fully appreciate its rare beauty.
The CD opens with the lengthy, and might I add utterly stunning Skenet Bedrar. That song is a textbook example of what prog is all about and is my favorite cut. And while I do like the rest of the album, there are other standouts, some of which have passages eerily evocative of Procol Harum. These are Korstag, Dagens Port, Awakening Bitterness, and The Gate of Day.
