MP3: November - Men mitt hjärta ska vara gjort av sten

I don't know much about the band featured in today's mp3 post except for one very important fact: I like it a lot. As for some background, here's everything I've managed to scrape together:

Swedish heavy rock trio. They came together in the suburbs of Stockholm in the late sixties (Snowy White had been an early member for some months). The group adopted their name after a very successful concert as support act for Fleetwood Mac in Göteborg on November 1, 1969. "En ny tid ar har", their debut album, is a heavy blues rock album with loads of guitar work inspired by Cream, Led Zeppelin and the like. November were among the first bands to use Swedish lyrics, sung in a very characteristic, moaning way by bassist/frontman Christer Stalbrandt, possibly influenced by Jack Bruce. "2:a November", their second album (and the album today's track comes from), was produced by Georg Wandenius (Made In Sweden) and showed a greater range; the music is heavier when guitarist Richard Rolf lets loose, but also softer in parts with piano and melancholic vocals. Stalbrandt later started the group Saga. Drummer Björn Inge became a member of heavy jazz-rockers Energy.
