They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5
Active compensatory factors: Ragnarok was that rare thing - a prog rock outfit from Nu Zild! I was a schoolboy fan. Are you kidding? Lea Maalfrid on vocals was a veritable NZ rock goddess!

The rest of the band were nameless long-haired seventies blokes. Let the record show they were in fact: Ramon York (guitars, vocals, synths); Ross Muir (bass); Mark Jayet (drums) and his brother Andre on keyboards and drums.
Their first album is drenched in wonderful mellotron and wonderful Lea Maalfrid vocals. Superb!
Where do they all belong? Be keen to find a copy of their second album - Nooks from 1976 (without Lea though).
