music

	Yamaha - just to hear someone talking about it makes my ear bigger. In my younger days I had more money to spend. And one target was my stereo which is still intact and working just fine. To me, it is a enjoyable pleasure to listen to music come through good equipment and Yamaha definitely comes up to that standard.
	Ulf Lundell - the king of Swedish rock. Ulf's music has a important role in my life. He makes my soul smile and come to some rest when everything seems to be f*****. You need to understand swedish if you follow this link.
	A lot can be said about Eva Dahlgren. In one way or the other, she belongs in the same category as Ulf Lundell. I like her older production most; there you find sparkling lyrics and fighting spirit.
	Agnetha Fältskog - The most popular member of ABBA which was the first band I got hooked on as teenager. Agnetha was also the first celeb I felt sexually attracted to
	Wynonna's first album came to me as blind buy, but take a risk, hear the fabolous voice if you like rock inspired country music; wynonna has the voice for anything, rock, blues, country... And if it helps you to place her, she was one part of the Judds
	I've been a BIG Pink Floyd fan since mid 70's. Bought my first Pink Floyd album in 1980 which of course was The Wall. I've heard it on a camp and didn't get it out of my head. I felt disappointed when the band broke up and Roger Water's solo albums felt more Pink Floydish than the band's own
	Jethro Tull is an other of these older bands that I prefer. Jethro Tull come into my life due to a school friend, a woman, Lena. Her boyfriend at that time had a complete collection of all Jethro Tull's albums. Nowadays I can almost say the same thing.
	Let's continue with old rock giants. My likes for Deep Purple was interestingly awakened by a broken C-tape. One of my loves tried to fix it but with no luck and when she finally gave up, she said "Oh hell, I can borrow you mine". And so she did. The very next morning I was listening to the album "In Rock" and every Deep Purple fan know that it means Ian Gillian by the microphone and Child In Time.
	Black Sabbath may be controversial in many ways but they have made some good rock songs. What first caught me was Geezer Butler's heavy bass and Toni Iommi's guitar. Nowadays I have over 20 Black Sabbath albums.
	Led Zeppelin came into my life pretty late. The band already had split up. But you will find some splendid blues influensed rock on their albums and also the well covered and known hit "Stairway to heaven".
	Of the younger bands, the Finnish Gothic Metal Band, Nightwish is one of few that makes my soul smile.
	An other is Evanescence
	A third would be the Dutch band, The Gathering
	The local record store that I prefer to use. The pages is done in finnish but maybe you can use them with a little logic. If you are living in Finland you can order by mail, otherwise you'll need a VISA credit card.
	If you live in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway or your country is part of EU, then this is a good place
	Here anyone can find and buy music, books and more
