It was pretty hard to release your record during the communist regime in Eastern European countries. Most of them had only one state-owned record company. While some East-Euro vinyl records have also attracted attention outside their native countries, a lot of unreleased music from the Eastern Bloc has only been heard by selected ears.
The new Estonian reissue label Frotee is proud to present a vinylrecord with the unreleased instrumental cycle “Regatt“ by Tornaado, a pop group from Tallinn, the capital of Estonia. In 1979, Tornaado recorded 6 instrumental tracks which were named after the Olympic sailing classes to attract more attention – the Moscow Olympics sailing regatta in 1980 was held in Tallinn. Their idea was successful and the songs were often played on TV and radio. As Tornaado was actually a pop group (half of the songs in their repertoire had lyrics), their approach to instrumental jazz-rock was different from the contemporary fusion groups; the tunes were shorter and blended together influences from different styles - jazz, reggae, disco, funk and rock’n’roll.
"Instrumentaaltsükkel "Regatt"" 10" is limited edition of 500 copies. The record sleeve includes the full history of the group. The tracks were taken from the original studio tapes and re-mastered by Lynn Petrin at Ebony Cuts.
