Google yourself!

Found this when googling myself. A rare occasion when my name is combined with the word genius…

Niklas Gustafsson an old fan of TVP provided a wonderful version of “The Engine Driver Song”. They have also released several amazing albums on Little Teddy and Time For Action labels as well as compiled a TVP tribute on Sweden’s But Is It Art? Label. Niklas continues to record with French chanteuse Friday Bridge for But Is It Art? and under the name This Years Model for Marsh Marigold. He is a musical genius!

What's he like?

Everybody say, ”Is he all right?”
And everybody say, ”What’s he like?”
Everybody say, ”He sure look funny.”
That’s Montgomery Clift, honey!

A good read

What a nice surprise! In this mornings Dagens Nyheter (Sweden's biggest daily) we found this review of We Walk Like Ghosts.

Dn-review
Expressions like classic pop, emotional and guitars climbing like ivy appeal not only to the reviewer but also to us. Read it here if you are skilled in Swedish: http://www.dn.se/kultur-noje/skivrecensioner/this-years-model-we-walk-like-gh...
