Recorded in Halmstad this summer!

Hip hip hooray for Per on his B-day!

November 8, 1978, Onsdagsmorgon med Gyllene Tider – rockgrupp från Halmstad. Radio Halland’s official log from that very day. We’re trying to get hold of the actual show and if possible add a link to it here. Thank you, Ingvar Andersson, for informing us about this.

Vote for Per! Best live act and solo artist of the year. 2016’s winners include Kent, Beyoncé and Coldplay. Note: you may vote only once, but you can edit your choices until Jan. 15. You may select 3 choices in each category, but you don’t have to. And finally: you don’t have to be a Swede to vote! (You login via Facebook.)

Wow, time flies, even when you’re not having any fun! Gyllene’s premiere single on EMI Parlophone turns 38 years old today…

The most interesting part about this is that Teaser Japanese was released the week before, but Break Another Heart and Run Run Run weren’t released until Feb ’84. Gyllene brought some friends along: Janne Bark guitar, Pelle Alsing (?) extra drums, an unidentified string keyboardist, Marie Fredriksson, Mia Lindgren and Anne-Lie Rydé on backing vocals.

Gyllene Tider will sponsor Drott’s female handball team the next season.

Hold your horses, there are (so far) no plans whatsoever regarding a Gyllene tour next year. Edit: plans have sort of formed, somewhat.
