    BACK IN STOCK!

    Sublime Christian folk psych jazz from 1970s Norway! Before you make a run for it, this is actually very good.  Deep obviously spiritual acoustic and electric jazz with elements of Norwegian folklore and Christianity.

    That's Why were founded by Jan Simonsen and Per Arne Løvold in the late 60's, together with some top-notch musicians they recorded two albums in '70 and '71.  This highly original fusion of secular rhythmic music, jazz improvisation and a distinguished selection of transcendental lyrics is one of the standout qualities of That's Why, separating them from more programme-orientated Christian music of the time.
