Already founded in 1967 the band The Old Man And The Sea quickly established itself on the Danish concert scene. They performed as supporting acts for Led Zeppelin, Ten Years After, among others. Nevertheless, the band broke up in the spring of 1969. They reformed again for the recording of their self-titled debut album, which was released by Sonet in 1972 with only 500 copies.
One of the best albums from Denmark which became soon a cult record and incredibly rare! Easily comparable to the high-spirited double album of Junipher Greene. Hard rock with predominant guitar and heavy organ lead the instrumental solo sections, while rough English vocals add a bluesy feel to the sound.
