Had anyone listen prog rock band from Finland, Haikara?

I bought their Cd in one cd shop wich had many good alternative prog rock bands.
Haikara, played in 70's and there isn't much about this band on internet, but their two albums are for me in line with prog classic albums.

Give it a try, it is worth listening.

Have thier s/t debut on CD. A fusion of prog/folk/psych/jazz. Rather an eclectic blend. I'm not sure how PA has them categorised. It's been awhile since I've listened to it so it's going on the list.Smile

it's nice to see some people rate Haikara high!

very good band, especially their first album, only € 6,95!

Pleas would you be so kind to translate in short terms what are the main theme of songs from their debut album.

I dont understand Finnish but their music is just fantastic, true prog band.

I found this page, it gives you a little idea what's all about, though I do not agree every translation here:

One of my favorite bands, bought all their albums for a year ago or something, but the debut is the best one.

And I can agree on those transalations not being the best.
