The Hoola Bandoola Band was a Swedish progg group from the 1970s whose political views leaned towards the left.
Their debut in 1971, Garanterat individuell (Guaranteed Individual), was hailed as the start of a new era for Swedish pop and was voted album of the year.
With På Väg (On the Way), recorded with a balalaika orchestra, Hoola Bandoola became one of the best-selling groups in Sweden.
In 1975, the alternative movement gathered in opposition to a tennis match played between Sweden and Chile, which at the time was under the military dictatorship of Pinochet.
Recordings from this tour were released in 1999 after the death of Björn Afzelius on the album För dom som kommer sen (For Those Who Come Later).
