Swedish jazz clarinet player Putte Wickman, active since the '40s, recorded this 1984 album featuring the next generation of Swedish musicians, including Bjorn J-Son Lindh (p,synth), Janne Schaffer (g), Teddy Walter (b) and Mangus Person (dr). The album was released in 1984 and features the next generation of Swedish musicians, including Lindh, Janne Schaffer (g), Teddy Walter (b) and Mangus Person (dr). The tracks are all compositions by Lindh, Schaffer and Swedish composer Leif Strand, and feature new age crossover with deep synthesiser pad sounds, as well as jazz rock and fusion with Schaffer's signature style. The album is an excellent example of the immediate sound of the 80s.
