Mr. Brown - Mellan Tre Ogon. 1977 Sweden

Mr. Brown, on their sole album, draw deep into the Pink Floyd well ala Wish You Were Here and Animals. Though from Sweden, Mr. Brown seemingly looks south toward the German bands of the day such as Jane, Eloy, Pancake, Fly, and Shaa Khan. The English vocals are too maudlin, but the native Swedish ones are quite nice (unfortunately too infrequent). The stylistic brush here is pretty broad and it gets thin by the end. A good album, but one to hear after you've digested hundreds of others in a similar vein.
