Tages - Contrast

More people should listen to this band. This is the first of two albums this Swedish psychedelic pop/rock band put out in 1967 (their 4th overall, according to RYM, though earlier ones may have been comps). The second LP of that year (and their final), Studio, is a real gem. If you like The Beatles, The Kinks, Small Faces, The Pretty Things, The Idle Race, Status Quo, etc at their poppiest, you owe it to yourself to check it out. I've only recently acquired Contrast and have played it a few times. It's a little less poppy I'd say, but I'm starting to think it's just as good. And that's damned good.
