The seeds for ACHE were sown in the early 60's via the Danish beat group THE HARLOWS. When HARLOWS Torsten Olafsson (bass), Peter Mellin (organ) and Glenn Fischer (drums) were joined by former MCKENZIE SET guitarist Finn Olafsson in 1968, ACHE was born.
They spent the next two years working on an extended piece called "De Homine Urbano", which was released as programme music to an experimental "rock ballet" in 1970. Released on the Philips label the same year with an accompanying single of non-album tracks, it netted positive reviews in the Danish press. ACHE's "rock theater" created something of a sensation in the rock underground, and "Green Man" followed in 1971. The next major ACHE project, by a revised six-piece version of the band, was a conceptual work called "Pictures From Cyclus 7", written in collaboration with lyricist Bo Lillesöe in 1975 and released one year later.
Ache have remained active on and off, albeit sporadically, ever since. Their only other major work (i.e.: not counting singles and compilations) has been "Blå som altid", a folk-oriented album released in 1978.

Forgotten essential jewel from the eurpo.prog scene. I remember I went crazy with this after me and a school classmate sneaked into on of his older brothers bedroom where ke kept his record collection, possibly 1974, Jethro Tull's A Passion Play was also part of the shock and so was Genesis Live. LITTLE THINGS is one of the biggest things in rock and am happy to have played it on radio in Chile more than once.Subsequent albums weren't so strong though.Aren't final seconds a bit Zeppelinish?Top
