The background history for this is worth an extended comment:

John Guldberg (vocals, guitar) & Tim Stahl (vocals, keyboards) had been booked for a studio session, but the singer they were supposed to work with didn't show up! Studio owner Werner Scherrer then said "jam up something as you're here anyway", and that's were an embrionic duo actually started out. Guldberg & Stahl soon decided to form Laid Back, relinquishing a promising studio musician career prospect. After having peddled some early tapes all over town in Copenhagen, they were rejected and dejected... By then, they had found themselves a dynamic manager in Kjeld Wennick leading to a deal with a Hamburg-based label instead of signing up with a local Danish record company. Teldec's label Strand went on to release "Maybe I'm Crazy" in Germany but nothing sensational happened... until it reached the shores of Denmark. "Maybe I'm Crazy" went on to become a massive hit back in their native country, where record companies had earlier said "no thanks... won't work in Denmark".

Vinyl freak info: never released / re-released on CD! Ultra-rare...

Music freak info: recorded on a 4-track and featuring lots of guitar synthesizer - quite innovative for the era
