Heta Linjen - Won't You Step Inside? 1971 Odeon
Feta Heta Linjen - Med Kisa, Brass & Brudar. 1971 Polydor
Won't You Step Inside? is truly a mixed album, but generally is a good effort. Heta Linjen are loosely tied to the horn rock genre, but with a distinct Zappa vibe throughout (i.e. early jazz rock, some silly humor), along with a few Canterbury references to boot. The album open dubiously with the not-good title track, only to be followed by the extraordinary 'You Shall Find Your Way', arguably the album's finest moment. Then it settles in from there. 'Black Eyes' is another highlight. Overall, Won't You Step Inside? is a solid record, that follows the early 70s Scandinavian underground rock tradition alongside bands such as Dr. Dopo Jam, Splash, Solar Plexus, and Made in Sweden.
