The Nice - Live Sweden '67 (2019)

Fresh from a British tour with Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd, in mid-December 1967 the Nice paid a short visit to Scandinavia, and performed this session for broadcast on Sveriges Radio in Gothenburg. It captures the quartet at their early peak, playing a blend of covers and tracks from their newly recorded (and not yet released) debut LP, including a mindblowing rendition of their signature piece, Rondo. Preserved in superb fidelity, with remarkable contributions from guitarist Davy O List and the inimitable Keith Emerson, the set is presented here in full, together with background notes and images.
