Lars Sjosten: Early
by AAJ Italy Staff
La strategia di alcune case discografiche di andare a rovistare nei propri archivi a volte ha esiti insignificanti, se non addirittura imbarazzanti, in qualche occasione invece riporta in superficie incisioni dal valore storico innegabile e recupera piccoli tesori misconosciuti, sepolti da anni di polvere, come nel caso di questo Early di Lars Sjosten. Early riunisce l’intero ...
Tommy Koverhult - Ove Hollner: In a Cool Way
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ci sono proprio tutti. O quasi. Gli standard che più standard non si può, i più amati del Real Book. Brani coccolati, destrutturati, vivisezionati, copiati, rivoltati come un calzino, trasformati, essenzializzati, ornati a rococò. Brani che hanno fatto il giro del mondo e fatto sognare più di una generazione. Ove Hollner e Tommy Koverhult scelgono un ...
Lars Sjosten: Early
by Jack Bowers
In 1972, pianist Lars Sjösten was invited by STIM (the Swedish Performing Rights Society) to record an album under his name, comprised entirely of Swedish songs. The vinyl LP, released that year as Gutår, encompasses the first ten tracks on Early. The others, no doubt appended in part to increase the CD's playing time, were recorded ...

Unremarkable, one might surmise, until he learns that Hallberg turned twenty-two on September 13, 1954, by which time he had already won a nationwide competition for young ...

by AAJ Italy Staff
Virtuoso baritonista, lo svedese Lars Gullin (1926-76) è stato un maestro del jazz europeo degli anni ’50, in grado di rivaleggiare per estro e tecnica con i ben più celebrati colleghi d’oltreoceano. Questa preziosa quanto meritoria ristampa di alcune sue storiche incisioni ne mette in evidenza la straordinaria cifra artistica. Sul piano della tecnica e della ...

Lars Gullin: Summertime: Vol. 9, 1954-56
by Jack Bowers
Anyone who has been paying attention should be well aware of my stance toward the late Swedish saxophonist Lars Gullin. In reviewing Volume 8 of Dragon's loosely chronological multi-disc survey of Gullin's music, I wrote that he was “a giant among baritone saxophonists, a “truly original voice and “one of the greatest jazz musicians who ever ...
