This solo album, released in 1989, comes from Danish guitarist Viggo Steincke Bertelsen, known for his involvement with progressive fusion group Coma and rock band Rockmaskinen. Featuring Danish session musicians like Jukkis Uotila (drums), Jens Winther (trumpet), and Uffe Steen Jensen (guitar), the album was supported by several music associations and councils in Denmark. It showcases a crossover jazz-rock sound heavily influenced by Bertelsen's roots in country, blues, and rock. Tracks like the Turkish tune A5, featuring percussion from Flemming Quist Moller of the ethnic jazz group Bazaar, along with elegant contemporary jazz pieces like B1/B4, and the standout keyboard work by Michel Bundgaard on B3, make for a collection of great tunes.
A5: Istanbul Boogie
B1: The Sweet Swede
