In late 1967, Donovan Leitch, aka Donovan, was asked by a friend to write a song for a new Danish heavy psych band, Hurdy Gurdy. Donovan tore off the song "Hurdy Gurdy Man". For whatever record company reasons, the song was not immediately delivered. As a result, Donovan recorded the song himself and released it to great success. Those Danish psych rockers would soldier on, nonetheless. They wouldn't actually put out an album, though, until 1972, and it would ultimately be their only full length release. But what a release it was. If you have the chance to check out the whole album, do so. It is some great hard rocking psych.
