Berits Halsband was one of Sweden's greatest unsung progressive jazz rock units. Formed in Stockholm in 1974, their sole self-titled album was released in 1975 on the Forsaljud label and featured as much as 14 members, including a trumpets and flute horn section. The album included four lengthy instrumental steamy upbeat fusion pieces in a slightly folk-tinged jazz-rock vein; add to it a Canterbury-centric airiness and a rhodes¢ based, post “Bitches Brew” intensity and what you get is one of the best mid-70s psychedelic-jazz rock albums you never heard of… Well, except the few ones, who kept the “collectors¢ flame” on, with original copies nowadays fetching few hundreds of euros. 40 years later Greece¢s Sound Effect Records, in collaboration with Musicbazz Productions presents the first ever reissue of this seminal ¡70s rarity on vinyl. Taken from the original master tapes, the reissue comes with a poster, approved from and taken care by the band and the original label. 160 copies¢ issue on black, 100 on colour vinyl and 100 on colour vinyl including CD.
