Aunt Mary was one of the leading Norwegian bands during the early seventies. They came from Fredrikstad, but went to live in Denmark where their first self titled album was released in 1970. In addition to touring extensively they also did couple of radio shows including one in Stockholm for Swedish Radio at October 1971, recorded live with no overdubs and good sound quality. So here you have 4 tracks including a 6 minute extended version of 'In The Hall Of The Mountain King' and 2 previously unreleased tracks that should have appeared on their second album but record label somehow lost them the demo and soon after Jan Groth left. These two tracks are among the more heavy stuff they did with impressive electric guitar and organ.

One of the early and by many considered to be one of Norways definitely best prog bands. Their music is a mix of heavy hard-rocking tunes, combined with clear influences from the symphonic genre. The more symphonic sound however didn't appeared until their third, and last studio album, "Janus". High-skilled musicians combined with good, creative melodies makes Aunt Mary a important Norwegian band to become acquainted with.

Considered to be one of Norway’s most iconic prog rock bands, Aunt Mary’s music has influenced generations of fans of all ages from around the world. Their music is the perfect blend of hard-rock heavy beats combined with cool symphonic and melodic undertones. Originally formed in 1969, very few Norwegian bands have achieved such international recognition as Aunt Mary. In the mid-1970s they were compared to giants like Deep Purple, Yes, and Jethro Tull. Each band member has contributed uniquely to Aunt Mary’s incredible stage presence and overall success throughout the years. The band is comprised of highly skilled talent - all equally proud to have contributed this important part of global pop culture. Aunt Mary continues to play sold out shows, especially at festivals, every single year.
