Funky Swedish Meatballs: Various Scandinavian Grooves, Vol 1


I've heard a bunch of compilations of Swedish or Scandinavian jazz/funk. Some legit (like Between Or Beyond The Northern Lights or Groove På Svenska), some not-so-legit (like Behind Kungsträdgården or Cosmic A Go Go). But the best turned in fact out to be some kind of obscure internet-only compilation called Funky Swedish Meatballs! Rare 70s jazz, funk, fusion, soul and groovy rock from top notch musicians like Slim Borgudd, Janne Schaffer, Björn J:son Lindh, Pop Workshop, Egba, Bo Hansson, Häxmjölk, Björn Skifs, Jukka Tolonen and Pekka Pohjola, among others (some to be found on Vol 2). If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!

Ha Ha funny this is my compilation. I did this about 3 years ago. I made it as an online comp on Soulseek. I'm glad you liked it. I did a part 2 also. I got tons of this shit laying around.
