269) Harpo-Smile 1976

Av Mikael Persson - 27 maj 2015 16:57

 


This is the swedish popartist Harpo's 4th album. It consists of pop and light rock inspired by the popular music at the time and that also means those terrible disco wahwah-guitars that was popular then. There's a lot of humour in Harpo's lyrics and music and on this album some of the swedish pop- and rockelite-musicians of the time contributes with their playing. But it does not help much. There are a couple of listanable songs but not much more. The album reached nr. 4 on the swedish charts.

    Album number two from this incredible supergroup that made some unforgettable music in the 1980's! This is again melodic hardrock with a lot of keyboards and with impressing melodic, orchestral and powerful songs with fantastic vocals. A mus...
