The second side consists entirely of one 17-minute instrumental composition entitled Ödet (The Fate) and is anything but parody! This is where the guys get serious and make some fine progressive jamming music that in my opinion resembles Zappas 13-minute The Grand Wazoo-suite.
In conclusion I must warn that this might be acquired taste for fans of the classic prog-rock but if you are a fan of Zappa and seek something exciting to sink your teeth into then by all means try this.

PROG REVIEWER

The music is, as always, a mixture of folk, circus music, prog, jazz, fusion, avant-garde, insanity, hard rock, intelligence, free form and beyond. The music ranges over everything, which is quite astonishing. The album is accessible and highly unaccessible. This is not music for those who cannot take musical bewilderment and chaos, yet it is structured and melodic in a weird way.
I may make it sound as if the music is not melodic, well it is. It is highly melodic. I suppose the key word is eclectic music through a bunch of musicians whims and chaotic notions. Harsh yet tender in places. Zamla Mammaz Manna is a unique group which is deserving of a greater place in music, not just just in Sweden but elsewhere aswell.
My favorite track is 'det (The fate). It is progressive rock at it's finest. The feeling is that of a group bursting at the seams. The riff is great and 'det has to be the most "proper" song of the album. It is a gem! The remainder of the tracks are amusing, yet brilliant in their own right, but it is 'det that takes the price.
All in all, I'd say it is a strange but clever album. Highly recommended for fusion fans as well as proggers of all trades, as it were. Mrvellous stuff.

A masterpiece of progressive music? In my world - yes, definitely!
Now, what has happened with my personal reviewing culture here at progarchives, is
that I only write reviews for the albums I really is specially interested in, or
albums of artists I really like. This is one of those albums...

The most of themes on this record are humorous and ironic "schlagerns" and the last
track is 17-minute instrumental epic Ödet (The Fate) - Zamla/Von Zamla played that
composition often in their gigs. Quiet interesting viewpoint at music in general and
very swedish!

Swedish lyrics filled with humour. Probably Samla's most accesible record - most songs are
almost pop, but with prog twists. However, closing number "The Fate" is a long, heavy,
touching instrumental, played at basically all Samla/Zamla gigs.

A blend of swedish folk and progressive.
All songs are in Swedish, with a lot of humour. But even if you don't get the lyrics you will
still feel the freshness, the communicative joy of this record.
Different aspects of Zamla are in this record, the funny little masterpieces, and the
melanchol
