Lindquist. Freddy - Menu (1970)

The one and only solo album from this guitarist from Norway.

Freddy Linquist did the guitars, bass, percussion and flute himself.

He had help from good friends on drums, keyboards, saxophones and vocals.

Freddy Linquist played in The Beatnicks, The Vanguards, Junipher Greene and Lucifer Was. That in addition to adding his guitars to around one hundred other albums.

As as studio musician and guitarist, it is hard to find any better and greater one in Norway than Freddy Lindquist.

This album is most known, to me at least, for the cover art work. It is...... ehhh...... interesting. It also killed the album flat out back in 1970 when the attitudes were different than today. That was a shame. 

The music is a mix of folk rock, blues and hard rock with some progressive rock influences. The music is pretty hard with some Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple influences.

Freddy Lindquist does a great job on the guitars but the other musicians also does a good job. 

The music is decent enough but not particular good. It is still an interesting album and one well worth checking out.
