Anyone remember Finnish Elevator Music? can anyone spell it?

[So It Goes 2512]

Hi Phyll

The band you're looking for is the Swing Hufvuds: they enjoyed a brief vogue with John (who said they sounded like a bad hand at Scrabble) in the early part of 1994. The CD was called Hits And Other Samples. On the Wiki, check out these plays:

All the best
