The third book in the series about Halvor Skramstad “Skogsmatrosen” and his work as a WW2 sailor in the Norwegian mercenary fleet. Have spent quite a long time finishing it, but not because I did not like the book, have simply had to little time reading the past few months. Anyhow, good one, and the good news is that Michelet has promised to write two more books about Halvor. Looking forward to them as well!

Rowing to Scott Weiland & The Wildabouts
Yesterday rowing while listening to Scott Weiland and The Wildabouts and their album Blaster. Was actually not aware of it when picking the album, but I have listened to him a lot before when he was part of Stone Temple Pilots. Anyhow, Blaster, quite enjoyable, but not really work out music. Not really sure if I will listen to the album several times, but I won’t turn off the music if it comes on the radio.
Spinning to The Sonics
…The Sonics are an American garage rock band from Tacoma, Washington, originating in the early 1960s.[1] Among the Sonics’ contemporaries were the Kingsmen, the Wailers, the Dynamics, the Regents, and Paul Revere & the Raiders. Their aggressive, hard-edged sound has been a major influence on punk, garage, and hard rock music worldwide, and they’ve been named as inspirations by Nirvana, Bruce Springsteen, The Fall, and other major artists….

“This is the Sonics” was released just now, and was quite enjoyable, might listen to the album several times when working out.
Spinning to Teenage Bottlerocket
Three days ago, spinning to Teenage Bottlerocket. In the car I won’t listen to them again, but I might actually listen to the album several times when working out. Enjoyed all but last song which was a ballad which is not enjoyable when I want to work out.
