• This new CD from the 5-piece Swedish folk group, Musikgruppen Raa, enter, for many, hallowed ground by presenting their own versions, in Swedish, of compositions by Mike Heron and Robin Williamson, of The Incredible String Band – but they make it work ! Although it probably helps for non-Swedish speaking listeners, if they know the original material.
• Musikgruppen RAA made this album not as a tribute but more of a salute to its inspiring roots. These songs have been part of the RAA songbook since their beginning, and are offered not as ‘Swedish copies’ but new, fresh versions of this legendary music.
• "I was very suspicious of a new treatment of the songs I know so well. I was won over in the first few bars - you have added so much and taken nothing away. I speak not a word of Swedish but it matters not as I, like millions of others, know the words already. Actually it still wouldn't matter - we are all used to listening to Italian opera and world music after all. The great thing about Swedish language is how wonderfully expressive it is. The overall effect of it on this album is mesmerising.” Gunstone / UK.
