But When I Started To Play! [CD]

After presenting himself in 1962 on the album Fanfar! with Lasse Lystedt's quintet and then made his recording debut under his own name with his own trio on the album Schizo, the 34-year-old teacher and pianist Berndt Egerbladh (1932 2004) stepped into the studio a couple of years later to play with his quartet on this album that originally was released in 1966 on the Swedish record label Nashville. The somewhat lengthy album title was a slight rewriting of John Caple's classic 1926 advertising slogan, and the album has previously been reissued both on Cupol (1969) and on American Jazzhus Disk (2013). With Lars Westin as producer, the album is now being reissued again, expanded with three alternative takes, which means that the playing time increases from roughly 40 minutes to over an hour - even if the bonus tracks are not essentially different from the original songs.
