Tältorkestern

In 1977 Tältorkestern went on a tour with a lot of guest artists, the tour was called Tältprojektet. Note that the album was originally credited to Tältorkestern (ie the nine core musicians), while compilation appearances usually credit the bigger entity Tältprojektet (ie including guest musicians and vocalists). Tältprojektet was a huge musical theater performance on the history of the Swedish working class, which toured the country the summer of 1977 in a huge circus tent. The group included over 100 people, musicians, actors, and members of some of the biggest progg bands of Sweden at the time, most notable Nationalteatern. Tältprojektet was a very radical, leftist political movement, but it included different political groups from anarchists to different types of communists and socialists. Years Active: 1977-1977
