With only 5 weeks left before the first recording session we have managed to narrow down the track list pretty much but we’ll write another post about that later. However, apart from these 7-9 songs we will also record a cover version of Arbete & Fritid’s “Esso Motor Hotel”, originally released in 1970, for a tribute album named Rökstenen. This album, which is a tribute to Swedish 70′s progressive,  is to be released by the Finnish Progressive Music Association Colossus during spring 2009.

The current, and yet diverse, line-up of the album is at the bottom of this post. More info might be found here: Rökstenen’s Myspace page
