"Peter Thorup, a well-known Danish blues-rock musician, gained an international reputation because of his cooperation with blues icon Alexis Korner in New Church, CCS and Snape in the early '70s. After he dispended his first band The Beefeaters in 1969, Thorup was helped by some old friends from famous Danish groups Young Flowers, Burning Red Ivanhoe, The Beefeaters, and Rainbow Band to record
Wake Up Your Mind
in February and March 1970. Thirteen titles were recorded of which 7 found its way in 1970 on the Philips-released album
Wake Up Your Mind
. The music was not restricted to just blues-rock and consequently this release had a much wider appeal, as the rest of Peter Thorup's efforts. The album reflects the musicians' good reputation and it is rather a band project than a solo effort. Fantastic guitar playing by Peter Thorup and Peer Frost (Young Flowers), gorgeous vocals by P.T. and Ole Fick (Burning Red Ivanhoe), excellent organ work by Morten Kjaerumgard and impressive flute and sax playing by Bent Hesselmann (Maxwells, Rainbow Band/Midnight Sun) define this real killer. Beside the original album tracks, there are 6 bonus tracks featuring, among others, Hendrix's 'If 6 Was 9' in a real killer 8-minute version and the 11-minute opus 'I Dreamed I Was A Dog Last Night,' by Ole Fick -- all-in-all, about 40 minutes of bonus material. Comes with a comprehensive booklet, band history, photos, digitally-remastered. A must-have."
