This Finnish  quartet were  formed in  1973 and  released one  album that mixes
folk, Medieval  and classical  music with  bits of  blues and  funk. Thanks  to
Ky÷sti Laihi, the original keyboard player who kindly provided some information
about his band (see the review  section of their album), we learn  that KAAMOS*
comprised some seasoned musicians who learned their skills playing the likes of
YES, GENTLE  GIANT, JETHRO  TULL, ZAPPA  and Todd  Rundgren among  others. More
importantly,  they wrote  their own  material which  resulted in  a little  gem
called "Deeds and Talks" released in 1977, now a collectable item. Although the
band doesn't exist anymore, all members  are still musically active in one  way
or another.

"Deeds and Talks" is  a refined piece of  prog with prominent guitar  (in fact,
great  guitar work)  and keyboards.  Some tracks  will remind  the listener  of
JETHRO TULL without the flute, whereas some have an almost funky, Stevie Wonder
flavour but still manage  to have a prog  feel; others are rather  bluesy while
others,  still,  are purely  symphonic.  An unlikely  mixture  of styles  quite
successfully put together.

Recommended to  prog-folk lovers  in general  and particularly  to JETHRO  TULL
fans.
