Finnhits


A Finnhits TV commercial from the 1970s

There's a new blog dedicated to Finnhits, popular Finnish iskelmä compilations in the 1970s and early 80s, today campy retro-pop nostalgia. Some Finnhits artists: Fredi, Danny & Armi (also responsible for the worst music video of all time), Freeman, Katri Helena, Frederik, Kirka, Irwin Goodman...

  • Music of Finland @ Wikipedia

  • A nice video clips collection of the 60s/70s (and earlier decades) Finnish pop -- "Finnhits" and more -- from TV and movie performances of the era
