Notes to the CD (excerpts):

Morning Has Broken consists of a number of the greatest pop-hits from the last thirty years, each and every one of them tied to their own time, but nevertheless melodies that have proven their validity. (...)

AWSoP – 'with its confused hippie lyricism...'

Notes to AWSoP:

(Procel [sic!] Harum)
The Kontra Quartet & Kaare Norge
Organ: Kristian Borregaard
String arr. by Poul E. Christensen
Guitar arr. by Kaare Norge

The Kontra Quartet is the perhaps best Danish string quartet, with members who also play in the Zealand Symphony Orchestra, also in summer known as the Tivoli S.O.

But on the sleeve we see Mr Norge together with the other string quartet used on this CD, the Kassandra Quartet, four gorgeous young women. Norge plays a Robert Ruck Guitar – whatever interest that may be to anyone.

Thanks Niels-Erik Mortensen
