Danish rock group founded in 1967 by Anders Koppel and Thomas Koppel with Annisette Hansen, Jens Rugsted, Flemming Ostermann, Alex Riel and Ilse Maria Koppel as a backing-project for a TV-show. Their debut as an established rock-group was in May 1968 on Plænen in Tivoli, Copenhagen. The Savage Rose became rapidly popular in Denmark, but also to some extent abroad. Their lyrics were inspired by Bob Dylan, and the music was a mixture of classical music and US westcoast psychedelic rock, characterized by vocalist Annisette. In fall 1971 The Savage Rose became reduced to a trio on account of musical disagreements – The Koppel Brothers and Annisette wanted to change the musical style towards soul and gospel. The Savage Rose reorganized as a group in 1973, and recorded Wild Child, - but split up in January 1975.

David Rose was an american violinist from Susquehanna. Rose had recorded albums between 1977 and 1983 which make up his solo career, often backed by some of his colleagues from the French Transit Express (with whom he also founded a pop jazz band Blue Rose in the 80's, namely Serge Perathoner and Christian Basile Leroux). Besides fusion music, Rose was also a member of an American prog folk band named Fred in the late 60's and early 70's. His first album 'Distance Between Dreams' (engineered by Laurent Thibault of Magma) is the most famous one, but the rest also exhibit fusion that can be compared to that of Jean-Luc Ponty, as Rose also combined electronic sound with his acoustic and electric violins.
