	GM 3032 - Mika Pohjola: MYTHS & BELIEFS
		The one word that best describes Mika Pohjola’s debut as a leader is “original.” The melodic strength of Pohjola’s material suggests sources in the traditional music of Finland, where he was born, and Sweden, where he first studied jazz with a Spanish instructor.
		Pohjola’s strength is his ability to make something new of these influences and concepts.
		Pohjola, as a pianist, is a master of tension and release, bassist Bruno Råberg (Full Circle, Orange Then Blue) complements and swings, drummer Robert Dani (Enrico Rava, Devil Doll) delivers both power and delicacy, and guitarist Goodrick is his unpredictably delightful self, whether burning, rambling or singing lyrically.

	PEKKA POHJOLA Kätkävaaran Lohikäärme reviews and MP3
		Pohjola's compositions are normally quite tightly composed with little room for soloing and jamming, but this is how "Kätkävaaran Lohikäärme" differs from the other Pohjola albums.
		As close as Pohjola has ever come to straight-on fusion, this is nonetheless undeniably everything one would expect from a Pekka Pohjola album.
		After thisalbum, the music of Pekka Pohjola did not have the genuine Finnish spirit present as a result of the decline of the progressive era, albums from the 80's onwards are more fusion oriented.Anyway Pekka is one of my alltime favourites, and all his albums are recommended!
