Olli Ahvenlahti, a keyboardist representing Finland in Northern Europe, released his second album in 1976. This is a masterpiece that develops a mellow and groovy sound based on Brazilian jazz and fusion. Starting with the classic "Grandma's Rocking Chair", it includes the mellow "Aura" that blends into the sunset and the popular track "Sambatown (Rock Ridge)". The entire album is highly polished and has an essence reminiscent of Azymuth.
