Tuntematon Tekijä - Ihmemaa (1985 CBS)




Some dealers say this is prog but i'm not so sure of that. There where at least two reasons why i picked this one up. The first is: Jorma Sauvala who is responsible for this album was my room mate when we were accomplishing  our obligatory military service in Finnish army. The other reason is i have never heard a song made of Margaret Thatcher. Now i know there are some by Morissey, Elvis Costello, and even Pink Floyd for example. The third reason for purchasing this was it cost only 5 eggs. Jorma Sauvala's MT is a leather dressed dominant with a whip and so on... This album is a hard one to categorize and stand. It is not progressive rock but maybe it tries to be progressive on some hardcore disco 80's way. Ihmemaa is not bad and occasionally it is even quite good but on the whole it is a bit hard to understand both musically and lyrically.
Tuntematon tekijä = Unknown factor
Ihmemaa = A wonderland
