Product description

Jan Johansson's "Jazz på svenska" is a captivating blend of Swedish folk music and jazz, released in 1964 under the Heptagon label. This 46-minute album features Johansson's masterful piano arrangements of traditional Swedish folk songs, recorded between 1962 and 1964. The tracklist includes beloved tunes like "Visa från Utanmyra," "Gånglek från Älvdalen," and "Polska från Medelpad," each reimagined with a jazz twist. Johansson's sparse yet evocative piano work, often accompanied by bassist Georg Riedel, brings a fresh perspective to these timeless melodies. Whether you're a fan of jazz, Swedish folk music, or simply appreciate innovative musical arrangements, "Jazz på svenska" offers a unique and enchanting listening experience.

This 2013 Reissue LP is pressed on 180g vinyl.

  • Logo Position Difference

    5 out of 5 stars
    tebuhicNovember 9, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I've got a version pretty much the same as this one, same runouts, same cover type, BUT the blue logo on the back is to the left of the A, not the right

  • Deep Sound Must-Hear Album

    5 out of 5 stars
    verboansyajuzApril 15, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Amazing sounding press. It's got a really deep sound, quiet and not dull in my view. The album is a must-hear for everyone imo

  • Enchanting Forest Melodies

    5 out of 5 stars
    Viwze02October 3, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Absolute favorite album of mine. Stunning tunes crafted by a true virtuoso. I envision forests and lakes, trolls and fairies as I listen. Those sad Swedish folk melodies bring me joy.

  • Clean Vinyl, Fewer Clicks

    5 out of 5 stars
    hcoajufApril 18, 2024United States🇺🇸

    It's quite a task to find a vinyl record free from scratches and grime, so this product does alright. The audio experience is less spacious and deeper than the original, but there are fewer bothersome pops and clicks. Having said that, even after cleaning, my copy still has the occasional click. It's bearable, but still irritating on a new record.

  • Fantastic but Needs Clean-Up

    4 out of 5 stars
    loxnzJanuary 27, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Fantastic album and rendition. However, it required several clean-ups to eliminate pops and to prevent the piano from sounding warped during specific parts.
