Amazing!

“Heres a Norwegian religous duo Elna Fredhoy and Rigmor Odun with a fantastic EP cover from the Harmoni label Oslo,Number HEP 178 would you believe!. It must come from the fifties and those interested in guitars and wonder what type is shown here…its a German Isana guitar and Elvis even had one when he was in Germany during his army years. These ladies have personalised both their instruments by adding the text “Helliget Herren” ….the Holy Lord.”     Keith Stevens, Nora, Sweden

   Hi…

   have done a bit research on this EP, an just wanted to correct the year of release. this was released as late as 1969.. The two “girls” are members of the Norwegian branch of the Salvation army. also interesting is what looks like an photo manipulation (although I might be wrong)… but the hand on top of the guitar looks fake..

   thanks for making me aware of this release… it quickly made it to the top of my want list..

   cheers!

   the words on the guitar “Helliget Herren” does not mean “holy Lord” but
   “holy devoted/dedicated to the lord”
