kattvals (splatter)

2024 new purple SPLATTER vinyl edition Kvartetten Som Sprangde (The Quartet That Blasted) "Kattvals" ("Cat Waltz") is of one of the most sought after, and beautiful, psych rock, progressive pre-jazz rock instrumental albums ever recorded in Sweden. Originally released during the summer 1973 on the obscure Gump label. Powered by a C-3 organ, Ludwig kit and 50-watt Marshall head with a home-built cabinet, the skilled 3-piece band (not a quartet that the band name would have you believe) absolutely soars on this record blasting away fantastically. The delicate use of the studio echo-chamber lends a magical, gossamer reverb to the whole album's sound. Includes a 4-page insert with lots of never before published photos and extensive liner notes by Reine Fiske. Limited edition of 600 copies.
