In the Plain by Denmark's Savage Rose has a striking cover photo with psychedelic color coordinated band members surrounded by wild pink lettering of the group name. Inside is innovative music, pretty much living up to the typical Polygram hype from this era written on the back cover. "Let's See Her" sounds like Ten Wheel Drive meets Vanilla Fudge; brothers Anders Koppel and Thomas Koppel wrote seven of the eight tracks, and created with this one clever sound and arrangements. The sleeper on In the Plain, though, is the one non-original, five minutes and 38 seconds of "Ride My Mountain," a composition by Jade. It's a wonderful production number where Anisette's vocal scream out over the very together instrumentation.

Third album from Savage Rose, one of the very few truly original bands to come out of Denmark in the 1960's. In the early years there were quite a few changes in the line-up, but with the two Koppel brothers and the unique voice of Annisette as their corner-stones, they were always musically way ahead of most of bands of their time…
One of the most well-known rock groups from Continental Europe, Denmark's Savage Rose recorded a wealth of intriguing and eclectic progressive rock in the late '60s and '70s. In their early work, one hears faint echoes of the Airplane, Doors, Pink Floyd, and other psychedelic heavyweights combined with classical jazz and Danish-Euro folk elements…
Anyone recognizing original songwriting performed with some of the best musicians will be positively surprised by this masterpiece, partially produced by George Duke. The genius of Thomas Koppel in music and arrangement is evident in these original tracks, and the lyrics and vocal performance by Annisette is powerful and moving…
A very diverse collection of protest-songs, folksongs, etc from all over the world, but performed in the native language of the band, danish. The songs include Joe Hill, El Pueblo Unido and one of the more beautiful hymns of football (a commission from the Danish Football Union)"Stjerneskud"…
Savage Rose keep on producing excellent albums and have done so for more than 40 years now. The band members have changed during the years, but the quality and the one of a kind lead singer Annisette has remained. They have created albums in different styles and this is a more rock oriented album than previous ones…
The voice of the female singer Annisette is simply unique: a strange mix of Björk, Janis Joplin and Sade. Annisette sings with a pain, a scream a wailing and a strength that is so special that a reference to anybody is impossible and needless!…
