International relevance: -
A-Kören (”The A Choir”) were made
up of a architect students at The Pylotechnic Institute of Stockholm,
with a repertoire ranging from atonal outbursts and political songs
with a leftist touch. Some of the tracks wouldn't have been out of
place on a De Förenade FNL-grupperna album. Sometimes the music
appears to have a faint ironic twist, but judging by the rear cover
drawings (made by some unidentified Henrik) depicting the Swedish
national flag with the Soviet hammer and sickle added and caricatures
of capitalists, I suspect A-Kören's intent was sincere.
The album cover features lyrics but is short on any other information, such as where, when and why it was recorded, but it has a late 70's vibe. I'm not even sure if the album title is ”Ur spår”, or if the ensemble's full name is A-Kören Ur Spår. A Google search leaves me equally empty-handed so I assume they didn't make another album and that this one is largely unknown. (I've never seen another copy of this particular album either.) All for a good reason though, because musically speaking, it's crap. If it has any kind of value, it's exclusively as an historical curiousity.
