Larsen, Kim & Kjukken - Du Glade Verden

NEW VINYL LP ON EMI MEDLEY 2012

GATEFOLD COVER.

One of Danish rock's leading sellers and most respected artists, Kim Larsen came to prominence as a member of what many consider to be Denmark's greatest contribution to the rock canon, the '70s band Gasolin'. Born in Copenhagen on October 23, 1945, Larsen teamed up with Franz Beckerlee, Wili Jønsson, and Søren Berlev in 1969 as Gasolin'. The band would soon become the biggest thing in Danish pop/rock, releasing nine albums from 1971 to 1978, and keeping its legacy intact by refusing to regroup in any way, shape, or form -- outside of interviews and the like. Although Larsen did release a solo work in 1973, it was not until the breakup of Gasolin' that the Dane's solo career really got moving. Beginning in 1978, Larsen began releasing a steady stream of solo work that would find him equaling the sales tallies that his former group had roped in. His 1983 album, Midt Om Natten (Middle of the Night), became the biggest-selling album in that nation's history, with over 500,000 sold.  www.kimlarsen.dk/kimlarsen/
