"The Taperecorder" is weird; like strange, weird. Warped vocals, lo-fi echo, sounds like it was recorded in a bathroom, probably even genius in reaching outside the box (?)
"Im Krankenhouse" - sung in German, yet kinda cool, adding flavor. The production isn't polished, leaving "14" doing their LP "14 In A Bunch" as they were; raw, live-in-the-room -- that's good -- hear the energy, and the subtle mistakes which adds to real-feel charm, a sign of times in 1966.
Kenneth Larsson on lead guitar and keys, and it works. His riffs are sharp, simple, effective - with punch. Conny Larsson's bass holds the grooves together, nothing flashy, yet it grooves. They mostly sing in rough English, attempting to rip hearts out with words they try to understand, cool in a broken way. There are worthy tracks here, like when you're thumping along to "Meet Mr Edgar'" ~ guitar riff's are good. Filled by 14 tracks, maybe they named themselves "14 In A Bunch" for a reason, and here's the thing - this album didn't blow up the universe - even when it might have, and not because it's perfect, its not, rather because it's real. No auto-tune, no algorithms, just four Swedes with original compositions and high hopes. And now they're still unknown, the original vinyl pressing in even decent shape is near impossible. Which is too bad, because if the Beatles never happened, this album might've been universally huge -- but either way, it's still a cool relic, so turn it up, enjoy, and let the fuzz guitars eat your brain.
- Further thoughts by "the fan" man ...
14 ~ "In A Bunch" remains a rather cool unknown Swedish rock album from 1966. A bunch of catchy tunes, fun vibes, and that old-flavored sixties beat sound. Songs like "Suit-Men Crowd" and "Please Girl" reflect in the best way. The band was from Sweden & sounds like they're straight outta London in '66. - Olle as noted above, wrote all the tracks - and performs on guitar! You may even dig the bands harmonies, jangly guitar riffs;
- kinda Beatles, kinda Kinks, and totally doin' their own thing.
- Perfect listening when pretending you're in a black-and-white movie.
- Pretty impressive for a small-town Swedish band in 1966 rocking-up at world-class levels and this effectively. Who knew?!

No faded areas, including no delete marks, no split seams, and no writing ...
- The vinyl: Rated: near M- thick-weighty platter = very shiny clean sides, both visually and playing with clear audio, no surface issues to interfere and both Swedish "Olga" labels are perfectly clean
