Description
A Svart Mondo release. Limited to 500 copies on black vinyl.Horoscope is an Occult Jazz masterpiece from 1973, never before reissued on vinyl.The album is very much in line with what was done in the 1970s Finnish music scene with its jazz and prog rock touches, but there really is no album like this. It sounds like a soundtrack to a bizarre, imaginary silent film from the 1970s in which different animals meet in a hazy jazz bar.In 1967, Matti "Rag" Paananen decided to compose his own vision of the Western astrological signs. Each one has its own composition on the 12-song theme album that was originally released in 1973."Dear Friend,This record that you are holding in your hand is a proper product of the Spirit. In 1967 Great Spirits dropped by my house for coffee and ordered: "You must set EVERYBODY'S CHARACTER'S into music". I immediately left, with a notebook in hand, to interview all people in the world, but the Spirits bolted my door shut so that I could not exit and announced with ghastly laughter: "We meant the HOROSCOPE! You are to humbly attempt to interpret all 12 signs as well as you can". This I did.Matti "Rag" Paananen"
