First one is made by the hippie rock band, supergroup Trúbrot. The band who made a progressive concept album back in 1971, the year of my birth. They started rehearsing in a garage @ Laugavegur shopping street in January. The 13 songs on the album chronologing life from birth to death.
Concept: from the cradle to the grave, and the influence of the environment on that unnamed person.
