Sommor Records present the first ever reissue of Bättre Lyss's Till Den Sträng Som Brast Än Att Aldrig Spänna En Båge, originally released in 1975. Rare Swedish psychedelic hard and progressive rock with powerful guitar/organ and great melodic vocals, featuring ex-Life member Anders Nordh on guitar. The Bättre Lyss project was born during 1973-74, when mutual friends Rolf Hammarlund (vocals, bass) and Christer Palmquist (vocals, acoustic guitars, piano) started to write songs sung in English. Soon after, the lyrics were changed to Swedish and another friend, drummer, and songwritter Rolf Johansson joined in. That's when they decided to record an album. Helped by some talented friends, including three electric guitar players (among them Anders Nordh of Life fame) and a flute/sax player plus an organist, they registered Till Den Sträng Som Brast Än Att Aldrig Spänna En Båge on a two-track machine at a state-of-the art studio. The result was stunning and was released as a private pressing in 1975. File next to: November, Life, Saga, Bazar, Silberbart. Master tape sound.
