Difference

Difference was a Norwegian rock band founded in 1966 who were discovered by producer Svein Erik Børja, working for the Norwegian national TV company NRK, who wanted the group to perform on TV. The Tree Of Love track became their successful hit in Norway, inspired by Procol Harum from the UK, with organ based psychedelic music. It was written by Ivar Gafseth and Erling Mylius, who were later known as Travellin' Strawberries in The Julekalender. The group was dissolved in 1969, but played together again from 1974 to 1980.

Peel first played a track from the band on 24 July 1968, when he got hold of the single that evening. Before playing the single, Peel had Norwegian broadcaster, Harald Are Lund in the studio to talk about English bands being popular in Norway and also about the band Difference, whose single Peel liked and compared to Traffic. The band split up the following year and although it re-formed in 1974 and made a number of albums (only released in Norway, according to Discogs) Peel doesn't seem to have paid any attention to them.
