Elmira - Lady of the Mountain 1973-76

From "Rockin Hood" blog: "Danish no-fi prog-hard rock sounds with blues and folk inspirations. Organ and guitar led real people music. Elmira never made it big, or even recorded an album while they existed. 'Lady of the Mountain' is recorded in 1972-76 and shows a stoned and long haired blast"
 Definitely a winner, with plenty of room for long instrumental madness. Some elements of Deep Purple, but nowhere near a copy of. A lot more hard rock than prog. Definitely performed by people with a genuine love for the sounds. Alternating between hard rock with firey guitar, and organ rich instrumental jams. A bit lacking in the sound quality department, but still way worth it. This album only came to light in 2000. Heavy rock with an attitude.
