JUNIPHER GREENE was one of the first progressive group from Norway. The initial line-up included Bent ASERUD on guitars, keyboards, flute and vocals, Geir BOHREN on lead vocals, drums and sax, Helge GROSLIE on keyboards, Freddy DAHL on guitar and vocals and Oyvind Vilbo on bass. They released their ambitious debut album in 1971 called "Friendship". It stands as one of Norway's earliest progressive album and the country's first double LP. They were one of Norway's best bands together with RUPHUS and HOST, although they only released one more album, in 1973, named "Communication" (also very good), before splitting in the mid 70s. Two compilation albums, "Best Of" (1975) and "Rewind" (1981), which also featured a number of unreleased tracks recorded between 1969 and 1980, were issued. Helge GROSLIE left the band to join TITANIC in 1972, ASERUD and BOHREN kept the JUNIPHER GREENE name for various incarnations during the 80's, although these were very different to the original group. They've since built a reputation as the creators of Norwegian movie soundtracks.
