Music composed by Sven-Åke Johansson-Halldin GEMA
Recorded in Västerås (Sweden) 2000

Free Jazz at Millenium's end: a historical idiom, sure enough. Subjekt of musicological analysis and historical research, of post-revolutionary nostalgia. of discographical reissues, even of revivalism.... But why leave retrospection to others? Sven-Åke Johansson has decided to takes a look back at the Sixties himself, to re-investingate the time when free jazz was still very much jazz...."Early free jazz on period instruments"? In a way, yes. Of course, Sven-Åke Johansson plays his Slingerland drum set.
