BLAST FURNACE 

Consisted of 3 lads from Copenhagen and a singing drummer from Britain called Tom McEwan who ended up in the Danish capital. 

Arne Würgler (bass, cello) played previously in Jazz formations and with PAN (another Danish psych band) 

Thor Backhausen (organ, piano, flute) 

Niels Vangkilde (guitar) 

This was the 1971 line-up who recorded the eponymous album in Copenhagen’s Rosenberg studios for Polydor/Denmark. 

“Lister Du Omkring Hjorner“ was also recorded for a planned single release.

Album sales did not match the high musical quality of the record and the fact that every-one in Copenhagen’s small music scene 

played and jammed with everyone else meant that the band’s life was short-lived. 

Bands came and went and the musicians found themselves in other groups. 

Tom McEwan and Niels Vangkilde joined the cult band Culpeper’s Orchard and played on their third LP, 1972’s “Going for a Song“
