Swingcerely Yours
We have been fortunate to work with and record Lars Erstrand since 1979!
The first time was an album featuring jazz violin player, Gunnar Lidberg.
Since then, we have made six albums with Lars Erstrand and where this collection album is the best from his first five Opus 3 albums recorded during 1983 – 1995.
- ”Two Sides of...”
- ”Four Brothers”
- ”A Tribute to the Benny Goodman Quartet”
- ”Dream Dancing”
- ”The Lars Erstrand Sessions”
All of them are remastered directly from the original analogue tape!

Lars Erstrand has many years been ranked as one of the three best vibraphone players in the world!
In Paris 1976, he actually played with Benny Goodman and with the members of Lars Ertsrand´s ”Benny Goodman band” - the same as on ”A Tribute to...”, but of course, without Ove Lind!
On this album, you will find some really great musicians and also some guests from both England and Australia.
Bob Barnard - cornet
Jan Lundgren - piano
Knud Jörgensen - piano
Ove Lind - clarinet
Danny Moss - tenor sax
Kjell Öhman - piano & Hammond B-3 organ
Rolf Larsson - piano
Roy Williams - trombone

Also for non-connoisseurs of jazZ
Acquired this SACD on suspicion, and I'm happy. It was a risk because no audio samples could be selected. Just courage.
