YOUNG FLOWERS - You Upset Me Baby

YOUNG FLOWERS - You Upset Me Baby ALBUM No. 2 (1969) Danish psychedelic, progressive rock band formed in Copenhagen in the summer of 1967 by Jens Dahl (ex-[Invalid Artist]) (lead guitar), Peter Ingemann (ex-Seven Sounds) (bass, vocals) and Ken Gudman (ex-[Invalid Artist]) (drums) The band debuted the same year on Sonet with the single “Like Birds b/w City Of Friends”. After the release of the single, Jens Dahl left the band and was replaced by Peer Frost (ex-Les Rivals) on lead guitar. With this constellation, the band achieved great popularity in Denmark, especially via the television series “Blomsterpistolen”, where the band drew attention by using Danish lyrics in their progressive rock. The band was originally inspired by bands like The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream , but gradually shifted to more blues-inspired and experimental material. The band used a lot of guest artists on their records as well as on stage; including Bent Hesselmann (saxophone), Lasse Lunderskov (lead guitar), Lars Bisgaard (vocals), Peter Thorup (lead guitar, vocals) and Niels Skousen (vocals). In 1968 they wrote the music for the short film “Cæcilie” and in 1969 they appeared in and wrote the music for the film “Quiet Days in Clichy”. In the spring of 1969 the band toured Canada and the US as the first ever Danish rock band, but the loose structure of the band eventually led to it’s disbandment in the spring of 1970.
