Egil Gjetrang I found this album in a bargain-bin back in '83 and listened to it for quite a while. Then in '84 I traded it for a complete BBC 4's rendition of Hitchhikers guide for the Galaxy by Douglas Adams which was not available in Norway.
Several years later I did buy another copy of the album and even that one is worn from playtime and age.
So to be frank, I look forward to listen to this and the rest of the albums which I have not heard before
