The audience was receptive and it was a cool treat to go on right before one of my all time faves, Queen.

Keyboardist and singer Mark Stein is full of praise about Northern hospitality: „I found the people of Sweden and frankly all of Scandinavia to be warm and gracious.


When we arrived I was blown away by the size of the festival, the huge crowd and their enthusiasm for us. We flew into Denmark, the closest airport, and when the passport official saw my guitar she smiled and said, “Here for Sweden Rock?” People come from all over the world. I was thrilled when I learned we were invited. Peter Bremy: „Sweden Rock is a huge and prestigious festival. VANILLA FUDGE has their show in the small Swedish town of Norje on July 9, 2016, in front of an audience of more than 30,000 fans in best memory. But most of the people already know him from CACTUS days passed. Pete Bremy is the name of the “new” man on bass. Moreover, VANILLA FUDGE does still rock in the original line-up from 1967 except for bassist Tim Bogert who is no longer able to stand on a stage since a motorcycle accident). “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” as well as “Shotgun” is still (or again) on the band’s set list and high up in the popularity of the still abundant community of fans. In 2016, this concept still largely defined the program of VANILLA FUDGE. Atomic Rooster, Uriah Heep and also Black Widow were other bands who had chosen Mark Stein, Carmine Appice, Tim Bogert and Vince Martell as their musical examples. With their debut album “Shades Of” Deep Purple covered the whole concept of their colleagues from America. Their versions of the Tamla Motown classic “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” (Supremes) or Junior Walker’s “Shotgun” as well as the FUDGE’s version of McCartney’s “Eleanor Rigby” electrified a whole generation of musicians and fans alike. With temporal and musically excessive cover versions which the band left their distinctive mark on (a heavy blues soaked steady rhythm), VANILLA FUDGE not only entered the international charts at that time. What began in April 1967 in the Ultrasonic Studios in Hempstead/ N.Y., does still possess the same charisma a good 50 years later in the rather quiet Swedish town of Norje near Sölvesborg in front of more than 35,000 enthusiastic fans: heavy psychedelic slightly progressive rock blended with classic citations and elements. Overpayment is refunded, of course.1967 – 2017: VANILLA FUDGE celebrate their 50th anniversary in style – with another musical rock monument: the album „Live At Sweden Rock 2016“ (to be released November 3, 2017).
