Pantsdrunk: Kalsarikanni: The Finnish Path to Relaxation [Audiobook] eBooks & eLearning

Posted by First1 at June 5, 2018

When it comes to happiness rankings, Finland always scores near the top. Many Finnish phenomena set the bar high: the best education system, gender equality, a flourishing welfare state, sisu or bull-headed pluck. Behind all of these accomplishments lies a Finnish ability to stay calm, healthy and content in a riptide of endless tasks and temptations. The ability comes from the practice of "kalsarikanni" translated as pantsdrunk.

Gurnemanz - Fair Margaret And Sweet William (1972) [Reissue 2008] Music

Posted by gribovar at Jan. 27, 2024

Gurnemanz from the Rhineland area were founded on 5/5/1972. Their music was a kind of medieval folk with lute, flute, sitar, and similar instruments. In 1975 they released their LP “Spielmannskinder” and in 1977 “No Rays of Noise”. Before the band already had released three reel-to-reel tapes: “Fair Margaret and sweet William” (1972), “Liaze” (1973), and “Sisu” (1974) each of them lasting 45 min. Good for us, John Cremer who was responsible for the recordings had kept the master tapes. In his Railroad-Tracks-Studio he got all the sound possible out of them. On the now available CD you can find as a bonus three pieces from one of the very first Gurnemanz’ gigs.
