Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce a newly re-mastered edition of the classic debut album by Danish Progressive Rock group ACHE. Formed in 1968, with a line-up of TORSTEN OLAFSSON (bass, vocals), FINN OLAFSSON (guitar, vocals), PETER MELLIN (organ, piano) and GLEN FISHER (drums and percussion), ACHE first came to attention in Denmark with their work DE HOMINE URBANO ("About Urban Man") which was the first ever Rock ballet, performed by the Royal Danish Ballet Company in Copenhagen in 1969. Influenced by groups such as The Nice, Iron Butterfly and more, ACHEs music was a powerful Psychedelic Progressive Rock driven by Peter Mellins powerful Hammond Organ and the fluid guitar playing of Finn Olafsson. ACHEs second album, "GREEN MAN" was released in June 1971 in Europe and was arguably the bands finest hour, featuring classics such as Equatorial Rain, The Invasion and Shadow of a Gypsy. Hailed by JULIAN COPE in his on-line DANSKROCKSAMPLER, ACHEs two albums for Philips are now hailed as Psych / Prog classics. This Esoteric Recordings reissue has been newly re-mastered and
features a booklet that fully restores all original album artwork with a new essay.
Also available: GREEN MAN (LP).
