Wig Wam - Hard N' Horny Vinyl Record

Hard N' Horny (LP) is the fearless debut album from Finnish prog‑rock pioneers Wigwam, originally released in 1969 on Love Records. This edition offers a vintage vibe with excellent analog sound and compelling artwork that nods to the band’s original hand‑crafted aesthetic.

Side A opens with jazzy, mind‑bending instrumentals like "633 Jesu Fåglar," "Pidän Sinusta," and "Guardian Angel, the Future," where keyboardist Jukka Gustavson’s organ and piano work shine through lush, melodic arrangements. Bassist Mats Huldén contributes the quirky "633," a short but hypnotic intro that sets the tone.

Side B unfolds as a playful rock mini‑opera centered around a character named Henry, featuring tracks like "...Highway Code," "...Ghastly and Diabolical Mistakes," and the rollicking "...Hard and Horny All‑Niter." Jim Pembroke’s British‑born vocals drive a vivid, surreal dramatic arc filled with humor and psychedelic flair.

Pressed on heavyweight vinyl, this reissue (including recent Svart Records limited‑edition variants in turquoise, magenta/white/black marble, or classic black) brings a robust listening experience with tactile bonus features like a lyric booklet and vintage‑style slipcase packaging.

At about 45 minutes, Hard N' Horny captures the adventurous experimental spirit of late‑60s Finnish rock. Whether you’re a prog explorer, a crate‑digging vinyl buff, or simply looking for something eclectic and bold, this album delivers a vibrant and memorable ride.
