70s jazz left us with some beautiful melodies and harmonies, but compared to previous decades they were few and far between. Jazz was busy with so many other things in the 70s. On this album four of Swedens top shelf players explore seven of these scarce 70s compositions by Chick Corea, Bill Evans, and other jazz greats. All four started their life-long jazz journey as kids in the 70s. This albums instrumentation probably is a first-time-ever in jazz: guitar, double bass, drums, and a cello as soloist and main melodic carrier. The album was recorded and mixed in 2018 at Carpenter Road Studios in Pite by Tomas Johannesson, and mastered at Nilento Studio by Lars Nilsson. It is released on the label Nilento Records.

The two Swedes Jan Lundgren and Hans Backenroth are musical storytellers, their playing is without any vanity and full of vivid stories. Qualities that Lundgren has already demonstrated with his own projects, the pan-European success trio “Mare Nostrum” and in duos with trombonist and singer Nils Landgren and bass icon Georg Riedel. Especially the latter finds a worthy continuation in the collaboration with Backenroth, an internationally sought-after European bassist.
