Rest In Peace, Pekka Pohjola

One of the greatest and most known Finnish composer-basists, Pekka Pohjola has died. He has been one of my inspiring musicians. He got known in the 70s as a bass player in Finnish progressive rock band called Wigwam and he has also released numerous solo albums. Best known of those are Harakka Bialoipokku, Keesojen lehto and Pihkasilmä kaarnakorva. Material from his solo career can be categorized as fusion jazz. Pohjola might have been gone, but his legend lives ever after.
