Description
Stuðmenn were founded in school, at "Menntaskólinn Hamrahlið" in Reykjavik. Their debut album "Sumar á Sýrlandi" in ´75 became an instant success on the market and critics cheered the band frenetically. Their music combined high-flyingly merry and higgledy-piggledy varied songs, all with a twist, reflecting icelandic characteristics and changing society by collected tunes and true icelandic lyrics. Studmenn had Egill Olafsson as singer he later formed the pro group Thursaflokkurinn, Jakob Magnusson who later did some solo jazz records other members were higly qualified icelandic musicians.
Long John Baldry sings one of the songs also Chris Spedding plays guitar in three songs
The record Sumar Á Sýrlandi, and the record not only set THE musical milestone for icelandic music, but also broke sales records and is still cult and classic there. It is not a simple, easy listening record, highly strange sometimes, and a bewildering mixture of styles, it sometimes reminds you of being slightly stoned or something
