I’m truly sorry if I for some reason have broken the free download policy but to my defense they are hard to spot if you  are not a internet wiz which I’m not.

It looked to me as a informative site with info of a band with spars of info, but as im saying im sorry by the rules which I have violated/broke, but I will try not to do such again in the future

(I hope my pleading for understanding is  ok received, I am not interested in getting enemy’s in PA because of small hiccups)

Doors influenced and clearly PA material perhaps under crossover prog?
 
Found this info on the band ( http://furuholmenwaaktaar.tripod.com/bridges.htm" rel="nofollow - http://furuholmenwaaktaar.tripod.com/bridges.htm ):
 

Bridges was the first band of Paal and Mags and they recorded an album called 'Falkkelttog' (Firelight torch) all in English.

The songs are very similar with The Doors, the main influence of Bridges.

Songs:

1.The oncoming of they

2.Somebody's going away

3.May the last dance by mine

4.Divided we fall

5.Vagrants

6.The stranger's town

7.Pavillion of the Luxuriant Trees

8.The oncoming of night

9.The cacant

10.Guest on Earth

11.Death of the century

12.The melancolic Chevaliers

13.Scared, Bewildered,Wild

14.Every mortal night

15.September

It was Paal that sang and unfortunaly, Falkkeltog sold few copies and it was sold just in Norway.

So, Paal and Mags decided to try some bigger and knew Morten in a concert, inveted him to go to England and this way was borning a-ha

I Hope they sometimes realise that Bridges are highly sought out and that they have new fans for hopefully new releases, and re-masters, it would be cool if ether Magne or Paul feels nostalgic, and release this album again sometimes,

couse those 1000 released albums are a rarety, obsucre stuff indead
