Our Take

Finnish prog rockers Tasavallan Presidentti took the stage at Ruisrock festival in 1971 and delivered a performance that left audience members in a state of pure musical ecstasy.

The band, led by the charismatic Jukka Tolonen on guitar, showcased their virtuosity and originality throughout the set. From intricate time signatures to mind-bending solos, Tasavallan Presidentti proved why they are considered one of the pioneers of the Finnish rock scene.

The opening track, "Last Quarters," set the tone for the evening with its hypnotic groove and dynamic shifts. Tolonen's guitar work was nothing short of mind-blowing, displaying a level of skill and innovation that would make even the most seasoned musicians green with envy.

The highlight of the set came in the form of the epic "Dance," a sprawling composition that showcased the band's ability to seamlessly blend progressive rock with jazz and classical influences. The interplay between Tolonen and keyboardist Eero Raittinen was nothing short of magical, creating a sonic tapestry that enveloped the audience in a whirlwind of sound.

Overall, Tasavallan Presidentti's live performance at Ruisrock 1971 was a testament to their status as one of the most innovative and boundary-pushing bands of their time. If you're a fan of prog rock or just appreciate good music in general, do yourself a favor and give this album a spin. You won't be disappointed.
