1LP Edition Release Date: 10/11/2017 Label: One Little Independent Records
Description
Bjork and Gudmundar Ingolfssonar's critically acclaimed Icelandic jazz album, 'Gling-Glo', has been repressed using the Direct Metal Master cut via One Little Indian. Originally released in 1990 on Smekkleysa (Bad Taste), the album went platinum, becoming the label's best seller. The first 14 songs are from this original issue, while the last two tracks (and the only songs sung in English - 'Ruby Baby' and 'I Can't Help Loving That Man') are drawn from a rehearsal recording made a year prior to the album. Bjork's elastic, somersaulting voice is right at home delivering these traditional Icelandic and jazz tunes. Happy songs performed by Bjork with the Icelandic jazz group trio Gudmundar Ingolfssonar really showcase her voice and reveal how her unique singing style shares some common ground with scatting. The trio consists of pianist Gudmundar Ingolfssonar (who, contrary to popular rumour, is not Bjork's father), Gudmundur Steingrímsson on drums and Thordur Hognason on bass. Bjork performed with this trio a few times before they recorded 'Gling-Glo' and everyone must've had a good time because the album captures the group moving through a mixture of jazz numbers and Icelandic songs with a free and easy feel.
