Rock For Kropp Och Sjal captures Träd, Gräs och Stenar at the end of their first run, when long, ecstatic live sets had pushed the group to a breaking point. This expanded edition frames that era as both a document of release and a final burst of the band's original collective energy.
Rock För Kropp Och Själ stands as the final, definitive statement from Träd, Gräs och Stenar during their original tenure with the legendary Silence label. By 1972, the band had reached a breaking point. After five years of relentless touring - defined by marathon three-to-four-hour performances delivered four or five nights a week - the collective was physically and creatively spent. The weight of expectation had become a burden; the band felt pressured to deliver "maximum ecstasy" and total psychic immersion at every single gig. This period of high-intensity "flipped out" performances culminated in their final appearance at the Falun prison in July 1972, after which the members dispersed to refocus and recreate their individual artistic paths. Expanded content: Includes a bonus LP of rare live material from Denmark and Gothenburg.
