TASAVALLAN PRESIDENTTI 8211 II (Reissue) 8211 LP 8211 Black Vinyl APR 3

LP – Standard Edition Black Vinyl (2026 Reissue). Packaged in a tip-on sleeve, with an insert featuring photos and interview with Aaltonen, Tolonen, and Robson. Tasavallan Presidenttis legendary sophomore album reissued on vinyl. Tasavallan Presidentti are one of the most loved Finnish progressive rock bands of all time. Their second album II has become a very hard to find collectors item, with Svart Records reissuing it officially on vinyl for the first time back in 2014, in close co-operation with the band members. The reissues sold out fast and its about time to bring back this timeless classic on vinyl, for the ages. Tasavallan Presidentti was established in 1969 by guitarist Jukka Tolonen and drummer Vesa Aaltonen. Joined by the English-born singer Frank Robson, bassist Mns Groundstroem, and saxophonist-flutist Juhani Aaltonen, who left the band after the release of the first album and was replaced by Eero Pyry. Their sophomore album that resulted with this new lineup is highly praised for the bands exceptional instrumental skills, and the albums mix of harder, jazzier tracks with mellower, flute-infused pieces. II is now presented with new vinyl colours packed in a tip-on sleeve, with an insert featuring photos and interview with Aaltonen, Tolonen, and Robson. Tracklist: Side A1. Introduction [4:00]2.
