Hi, I need some info about Scandinavian Group or artists, I remember a group where their album cover had a parrot or something like that, they were from Sweden or Danmark, anyway if you can tell me a list of rock and roll groups it could be great, and if they are influenced by the Stones better,

...but he's on vacation right now.

Anyway I'm sure he'll say Gasolin'. A Danish rock band from the 70's. Maybe more influenced by Hendrix than Stones.

Another Danish rock band with an original approach to rock music is Savage Rose. Baboon Bro will recommend them too.

I'm not really that familiar with Swedish rock music, so I won't go into that.

I don't recall any Danish record with a parrot on the cover, so I can't help you with that, but here's a link to a site with some Danish rock groups from the 60's and 70's: [www.karma.dk] Maybe you'll find the cover there. No English version, so it might be a little hard to navigate

Soundtrack of our lifes are a very good swedish band

The Hellacopters.
They are amazing. Pure rock n roll.

The Hives are a current Swedish band that have a bit of a garage rock sound to them and an energetic frontman, Pelle Almqvist, who was probably influenced by Mick Jagger.

TSOOL (The Soundtrck Of Our Lives, support in 1998 in Sweden)++

Turbonegro were good from 1997 - 2000

the danish beat group -Peter Belli and les rivals their sixties recordings is kick ass and there first single was a cover of -you better move on
and Peter belli is a great stones fan and man what a voice

He has also covered Mick's Out of Focus

...that reminds me. carlitosbaez, is it this record you are referring to?



It's a bird of some kind

Yeah your right sohoe he also covered- out of focus

he also did a song in the 80´s simple called -the rolling stones

and he has covered dead flowers and a great version of holly´s- not fade away

and he has done some otis redding covers that is just out of this world

he did a version of -ive been loving you, that next after otis himself is simple the best version ever recorded of that song

Yep. Peter Belli is surely a great singer. Don't forget his cover of Animals' We Gotta Get Out of This Place.

Diamond Dogs..... stonianos 100%...

Yo estoy ahora mu enganchao a The Sounds... digamos algo asi tipo Blondie...

The Soundtrack Of Our Lives is the best I've heard, and it's fun to point out the "inspirations" to many of their songs..., then one always has to mention Hanoi Rocks, arguably the most influental unknown band in history. (last mentioned as "also listen to" in MOJO's 80's booklet's Guns N'Roses entry).

Do you mean this Finnish band?
[www.scandinavianmusicgroup.com]

When speaking about Finland, I like more The Flaming Sideburns, they performs absolutely good shows.

Don't know much about Scandinavian rock bands, but I've been to a concert in Stockholm in the early 80's. I saw Black Sabbath. By the time they finished their first song, all the chairs on the floor level were stacked up in a large pile at the rear of the floor section...and a sea of blond heads were rushing the stage, what a trip.

Sirenesangen with Gasolin' from 1976, Roy Thomas Baker-era

Gasolin' Mk I from 1971, Thylejren

Heard a story about Bobby Keys really liked the norwegian band Titanic, this was in the 70's. The Stones saw them perform and Bobby wanted to play with them and Mick asked them about it, but the band said they had to come back the next night, and they did. That's pretty cold, huh? Anybody else heard this? There's a book on the way, written by Tom Kristensen, one of the original members of the Backstreet Girls. And everybody who loves the Stones, loves Backstreet Girls:-)
