It has even become one of the most important areas among record collectors from all over the world. Meticulously researched, the book guides you through every single artist and group that ever had a progressive record released! On major labels as well as on the small independent labels. They are presented in detail along with all the individual musicians that made it all happen. It covers the fuzz guitar groups, the experimental bands, the power trios, the radical political groups and the psychedelic acts. Early pioneers like International Harvester, Made In Sweden, Hansson & Karlsson and Mecki Mark Men paved the way for renowned acts like November, Träd, Gräs & Stenar, Blå Tåget, Nationalteatern, Hoola Bandoola Band and Kebnekajse as well as the mavericks of Knutna Nävar and Rävjunk. They are all included! As well as the highly collectable acts as Radiomöbel, Taste of Blues, Gandalf and Epizootic. This superbly produced full colour book presents approximately 400 artists and their records in detail with a collector´s valuation guide for the original vinyl records and with all sleeves lovingly depicted!"
