Friendship Time were a short lived Swedish prog-rock quintet who were in existence from 1970 up to 1976. The band resmbles Yes and it's family of bands, such as Flash and Badger, and other short lived Yes bands. The band featured Martin Cehra on bass, Leif Froling on vox, Thomas Lowgren on drums, Kent Kroon on 1st lead guitar, and Dag Mattsson on 2nd lead.
 
The band recorded one album in 1975, which would not be released until 30 years later! The band has been in the works of a reunion tour for around 2 years now, but replacing Martin, will be Martin's son, Frederik.
 
Here's a clip (studio):
 
And 3 live clips:

It is them! The recording is not a demo, it's just somebody who probably recorded off his turntable or summin.

well from the album samples [those live cuts are a bit raw] I'd think they should probably be added, I guess either Symph or Eclectic would suit them but if there are no takers, we will seriously consider them for Heavy Prog as they are a legitimate prog band .. plenty of info on the album --

They're totally Eclectic Prog. They have a lot of Flash inlfuences, while there are less Yes influences.
