2018

Dans till storband, tillhör det en svunnen tid? Berätta det i så fall inte för Leif Kronlund. Vid 87 är denne mästare av svensk storbandsdans hetare än någonsin. Då har hans eviga orkester ändå spelat för sådana som Elizabeth Taylor och Frank Sinatra på några av världens mest fashionabla nattklubbar. Även Ann-Louise Hanson, Towa Carson & Anna-Lena Löfgren är exempel på artister som slagit igenom som sångare i orkestern. <br/><br/>Leif Kronlunds Orkester drar tusentals dansande och dussintals fullastade bussar från hela landet till sina showkvällar. 2017 blev Kronlund trefaldigt prisbelönad - inklusive av kungen för sina tjänster för dansen. Nu firar han det med att ge ut ett helt nytt album, "Keep Swinging", som spelats in i samma studio i Stockholm där han gjorde sina första inspelningar för mer än 60 år sedan.

180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>Just as Liverpool named its airport after John Lennon, New Orleans' gateway to the sky now bears the name of another musical giant. Like the late Beatle, Louis Armstrong put his home town firmly on the map, and his legacy will be listened to and appreciated for as long as music is played. Wherever in the world you fly from New Orleans, the name of Louis Armstrong is known, revered and respected. Here's a selection of his greatest songs that tell you exactly why.

180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>'My Favorite Things' is a key item in Coltrane's discography. He had already recorded some sides for Atlantic Records but these had been made with pick-up groups and showed 'Trane' very much in the accepted hard bop idiom, albeit making grand strides forward with his playing and harmonic searching. Here though, was the first album recorded with his new working outfit with McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones (Steve Davis, although perfectly capable was merely the first in a line of bassists Coltrane worked his way through before settling on Jimmy Garrison). The music created for this album in late 1960 differed radically from what had preceded it as Coltrane forged his own pioneering path drawing on the modal experiments he'd been involved in with his final leader, Miles Davis.

180 gram high fidelity.
