Ooh my, these are exhilarating times, when almost 30 years after the fact we're allowed to get ourselves a vinyl copy of this quite unique album by the somewhat insane outfit known as Jesters Of Destiny!

Fyra Elegier was originally released on mini-CD via Nordvis Produktion, and on vinyl by Blut & Eisen Productions some months later on.
