Flying Norwegians New Day

The New Day- the debutalbum from Flying Norwegians is first truly remarkable country rock album from Norway.,it's the first album to be convincingly good in a genre that we believed, until 1974, to solely be the domain of American artists with mud on their boots and whiskey on their person. The band, which was given the self-evident name Flying Norwegians, can be traced back to the end of the 1960s. Rune Walle met Nina Johansen at a People's College outside of Bergen and together they formed Oriental Sunshine. They released one LP in 1970, considered a classic, in which they fuse oriental soundscapes with folk music traditions. Two years later, Walle found himself in another pioneering band: Hole in the Wall. This band mixed the sounds of both American rock and country with Norwegian folk music tonality, creating an album considered to be one of the very best to ever have been made in Norway.
