The song dates back to 1980. It is about a drifter / vagabond who is not chained to anything - he is free to come and go. The only thing which is a must for him is an evening beer =).

This group is part of my vague childhood memories. It was summer and we were walking down a dirt road. The older kids were talking about a song "Rappiolla", which had raised some fuss with controversial lyrics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPy2zlvesm4

Later on, the lead guitarist and singer, Ismo Alanko, had a band called "Sielun Veljet". They were specially known for their energetic and shamanistic live performances. I never went to see them, but even listening to studio versions helped me to realize that old rituals and shamanistic experiences aren't just something told in the books of folkloristics. The same phenomenons just get transformed and reborn in modern culture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0wAPmwM9gI
