Originally formed in Sweden in 1972, SHAGGY is a five piece Progressive/Hard Rock band whose first album, “Lessons for Beginners,” is now in a 45th Anniversary Reissue on Sonic Age Records. Thanks to musician’s musician, journalist, and all-around talented cat Janne Stark (OVERDRIVE, MERRIWEATHER-STARK, BANDOLIER KINGS), there are four additional tracks here which eluded the original 1975 release. The band has been influenced by the likes of DEEP PURPLE and early URIAH HEAP, and that influence certainly rears its head throughout this album.
