kajanus (hultgreen) later said:"the musical direction of the group was probably closer to american folk-rock than anything else. i must confess, having spent my formative musical years haunting the folk clubs in montreal, canada and watching all the current folk and folk/rock programs on tv, i was strongly influenced by this music. the most influential artists for me at the time were people like dylan, the byrds, fred neil, simon and garfunkel, the beach boys, the mamas and the papas, and gordon lightfoot. pre-eclection, i was a purist fighting the acoustic battle versus the electric "demons" creeping into the scene. i remember being shocked when dylan went electric. it is therefore ironic that i should end up a few years later playing an electric 12-string in eclection."
