"Von Zamla were founded in 1981 by Grammy Award-winning keyboardist/composer Lars Hollmer and guitarist Eino Haapala, both former members of Sweden's Samlas Mammas Manna, one of the original five founding bands of the 'Rock In Opposition' [R.I.O.] movement, and one of the most popular bands in Sweden during the 1970s. Von Zamla released two albums in their lifetime; Zamlaranama (1981) and No Make Up (1983), neither of which was released outside of Sweden. The band disbanded after a final tour in 1985. These previously unavailable, professionally recorded live tapes are from the band's European tour in Spring, 1983. In addition to the two co-leaders, the band features the work of Univers Zero member Michel Berckmans on oboe and bassoon, a second keyboardist, bass and drums. This album is the first time that any Samla/Zamla related works have been released in the USA."
