It's Been a Long Long Time

描述

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1968 album from the Swedish Pop band featuring future ABBA star Benny Andersson. It's Been a Long Long Time was the Hep Stars' fourth album, released in February 1968 and not issued outside Sweden. It was their only album for the Cupol label and RPM International adds the only non-album single the band issued on the label. RPM International's reissue is the first time the album has been released in Europe outside Sweden. The sought-after and rare It's Been a Long Long Time is a classic, harmony filled sunshine pop album. It was recorded in London in 1967 with producer Steve Clark, the associate of legendary American songwriter and singer Curt Boettcher. With Clark, the Hep Stars were the first to record Boettcher's songs "Another Time" and "Would You Like to Go", later released in America by Sagittarius. Other songs on It's Been a Long Long Time had been recorded in America by the Association and the Ballroom.
