Family at Gröna Lund — Eva Geijerstam’s review

Dagens Nyheter24 August 1970Review
by Eva Geijerstam

Research summary. In Många nya grupper och få bra musiker, Eva Geijerstam reports Family playing Gröna Lund on Saturday evening, 22 August. She praises the imaginative, strongly swinging music but finds the band somewhat better served by records, where Chapman’s vibrato comes across more clearly.

Many of the thousands who had heard Mungo Jerry gradually left despite the quality of Family’s playing. The review does not say that they waited until Family had finished. It confirms the Saturday performance, but neither both advertised appearances nor their actual start times.
