The Old Man & the Sea split up back in 1975.

The Old Man & the Sea split up back in 1975. Yet the band still kept in contact, and frequently met up to do jam sessions. One of these occasions were taking place on the 5th. of April 1978. At that time Tommy Hansen had established a studio facility called “HT Studio”. In these humble surroundings, the magic of “Witches Brew” ascended. Some dedicated friends of ours joined in for this particular jam session.

Apart from John Lundvig (drums) Erik Dolle Halager (bass) Ole Wedel (guitar) and Tommy Hansen (keyboards) Harry Jokumsen played the guitar, Poul Aage Hersland played the flute - oboe and saxophone, Torben Fingal Frederiksen did percussion, mainly congas, and finally Preben Lundvig did some guitar.

When the soundcheck was completed, the tape recorder was put in record mode and turned on!
After resting in a drawer for more than forty years, it came to live when Dolle (Bass) passed away in July 2020.

The content was awoken with the help of modern technology, such as various plug-ins, doing all kinds of alteration to the original recordings. By being finalized in vinyl, the statement is clear: Go blow your brain out with this record!
