All hail Viking Rock! Neon Rose was a hard rock band from Sweden
who were originally called Spider, but changed their name To Neon Rose when Stanley Larsson joined the group. Their debut album on Vertigo records, A Dream Of Glory And Pride, was released in 1974. I do not understand why this album went nowhere, and why I can't find a favorable review of it anywhere on the internet. Come on people, this is a fantastic album, 70's hard rock at its finest, with Julia's Dream being a personal favorite. Not a bad song on the album! The band's subsequent offerings, 'Two' and 'Reload', were also very good, but not quite as awesome,
