Instrumental
International relevance: ***
High calibre free/avant jazz from
Gothenburg's vital 70's scene, with Susanna Lindeborg (Mwendo Dawa,
Salamander) on piano. But ”Castor fiber” has powerful and nervy
perfomances from everyone involved, which means Bo Andersson (sax,
clarinet), Jan Amnehäll (sax, flute), Ingemar Landén, (drums),
Per-Anders Nilsson (baritone saxophone) Kjell Thorbjörnson (bass),
with guests Torulf Berg (cornet), Anders Bodebeck (trombone), and
Harald Stenström (tuba). Dynamic and tense, there's anothing
airy-fairy about this; still it sometimes gets the dreadful 'spiritual jazz'
tag attached to it which is dead wrong – spirited is the
correct word.
Olle Bäver is also represented on various artists comp "LIM – Levande musik från Göteborg". They later turned into acclaimed
free jazz outfit Pow Wow that released a couple of discs on the
Footprints label in 00's.
