Modern Music Band ~ Sweden


Modern Music Band. 1972 Spark

Not long ago we featured a 1970 Swedish group called Opus III & Friends, and I stated that they reminded me of a horn rock band, except that they didn't have horns. And here we have another band like that, except they do feature them... horns that is. And much more, fully utilizing the 8 piece band here (trumpet, trombone, organ, flute, sax, guitar, bass, drums). This is a very fine example of the style, with good melodies and female vocals sung in Swedish. I believe all are originals, except one cover of Chicago's 'Make Me Smile' (and an excellent rendition it is). For Swedish horn rock, I found this to be much more preferable than Splash's Ut På Vischan.
