One of the many competent Swedish bands imitating Anglo rock in the mid-'60s, the Fabulous Four had four Top Ten hits in their native country in 1966 and 1967, failing to make a ripple elsewhere. In the manner of many Swedish acts, they had an almost willful lack of identity. They tried sub-Merseybeat, folk-rock, and fuzzy garage, sometimes echoing groups like <a href="spotify:artist:1SQRv42e4PjEYfPhS0Tk9E">the Kinks</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:320EPCSEezHt1rtbfwH6Ck">the Monkees</a>. They wrote much of their material, but had their hits with awful covers of foreign pop tunes such as "Puff (The Magic Dragon)" and "Rhythm of the Rain" -- recorded, one suspects, against their will. Their stuff is not worth tracking down unless you've got a serious jones for '60s Continental rock, though judged by the standards of that category, they produced some acceptable recordings. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi
