V/A - Reportage: Spela Själv

"Exact reproduction LP of a Swedish release from 1970. A bit of confusion surrounds this release: The album has been credited to Trad, Gras och Stenar, but they arent featured on it. Bo Anders Persson did, in fact, in collaboration with Solvieg Bark, compile, edit and release this album. Bo Anders Persson, was a member of the legendary Swedish bands Harvester, International Harvester, Parson Sound, and Trad, Gras Och Stenar. Solveig Bark was one of a few young composers that, through the UNM (Young Nordic Music Festivals), would become a contemporary of Erkki Kurenniemi, Folke Rabe, etc. Reportage: Spela Sjalv roughly translates to Play Yourself. It contains field recordings of amateurs playing/making sounds. Raga Concr_ɬ®te, if you will. A fine, rare, and lovely piece to behold. Highly recommended!"
