ERSTRAND-LIND QUARTET
A Tribute To
The Benny Goodman Quartet

This recording includes most of the Goodman favourites: Stomping at the Savoy, Don't Be That Way, Avalon, Smiles, Opus fi, Pick a Rib, etc. It is worth mentioning that, for his Paris concert in 1972, Benny Goodman chose these players for his accompanying group - though, needles to say, minus clarinettist Ove Lind. Rolf Larsson, piano and Pelle Hultén, drums.

Better entertainment would take a lot of finding. Technically and musically, this is an excellent recording and a worthy tribute to one of the great figures of jazz. (ÖC)
