Long a favorite among progressive rock and pop fans in the know, Wigwam are best remembered for their 1975 album Nuclear Nightclub, which was released in Finland on Love Records and in England on Virgin Records. Led by U.K. singer-songwriter Jim Pembroke, Wigwam were the biggest band in Finland from the late '60s through most of the '70s. They reformed for a fantastic album in '92, entitled Light Ages, and now ten years after they rise again for a fantastic studio album called Titans Wheel, released in Finland on EMI / Harvest Records. Pembroke has written some incredible new tracks for the album and he's joined by long time Wigwam members including the outstanding guitarist Pekka “Rekku” Rechardt—co-writer of many of Wigwam's best songs. Over the years, Wigwam have often been compared to music legends like The Band, Procol Harum, Warren Zevon and The Beatles and they prove their excellence yet again on their monumental 2002 masterpiece Titans Wheel. Filled with catchy rock riffs, Pembroke's stirring vocals, amazing rock guitar work from Rechardt and a great performance by everyone, Titans Wheel is an admirable CD, an album to keep for the ages.
