Last one. Today...

Did you ever get translations to the highly leftist lyrics then? 

I did indeed. Researched the band and its members, the whole shebang.

Unrelated, there is a raccoon staring at me through my back door as I type this.

Quiz:
Which other band have a SG playing lead guitarist who also started out on accordion?
Doing both in a band is more a hassle, though. "Should this song have a guitar solo or accordion..?"

Most Tejano bands with that situation usually use Fender guitars, so it's not one of them.

But I think I know. I'm assuming this guitarist played with the fingers that were *left*.

You're not far off, but he did actually play a white Strat once...

Prudence of the day isn't Prudence, but Ruphus.
Started out as prog/blues, went into jazz-fusion.

That's what I thought. I'm liking the Ruphus stuff, BTW...

I'mma post another Skorpio, now...

This one has a very strong DP Mk3 feel to it with that Hammond steaming along. Love this track.

To complete the Hungarian Rock top trio, I gotta post something from Omega... 

"Gyöngyhajú lány", music written by Gabor Presser, who later split to go to Locomotiv GT. Scorpions did a version of it called "White Dove" and Kanye sampled it in "New Slaves", which got him a lawsuit from Mr. Presser... also used in the game "This War of Mine". Pretty little song, I think, although it's sort of the "Listen to the Flower People" phase of the otherwise hard-rocking Omega.

Speaking of guys that took off to solo careers that went nowhere, that reminded be of Tomas Barta of Locomotiv GT... great guitarist, defected from Hungary at the end of their US tour, and then wound up as another dime-a-dozen guitarist in the USA, eventually dying of a drug overdose.

And the winner of this thread is Tomas Barta! I love this video, right up there with Ram Jam's "Black Betty". Thanks for sharing!

This is THE best Norwegian band EVER. Didn't pay enough attention to get the first newly released 1000 pressings of a new vinyl with till now unknown recordings from Swedish radio from '72, but hoping the one online shop i found is right that there'll come a second pressing.
Could've posted loads of tunes from them, but will stick with one for now. Inspired by Beatles (obviously), Stones, Sabbath, Purple, The Band, Jethro Tull and a bunch of others...

Nice, thank you!

Another great band from behind the Iron Curtain... Puhdys! My favorite album of theirs is Perlenfischer and my favorite song from that album is "Wilde Jahre". I really like how it sort of combines UFO, Scorpions, and Allman Brothers in its sound.

Here's a great doom metal band from Finland I bet most people never heard of...they only did 2 albums in the late 90s here's an awesome track from the first one:
