Our Take

Stockholm Sweetnin' by Rolf Ericson is a whimsical journey through the streets of jazz, packed with more surprises than a game of musical chairs at a retirement home. The Swedish trumpet legend showcases his virtuosity and personality, proving that age is just a number when it comes to swinging.

The album kicks off with the infectiously catchy title track, setting the tone for a nostalgic yet modern sonic experience. Ericson's smooth trumpet lines weave effortlessly through a groovy rhythm section, transporting listeners to a smoky Stockholm nightclub circa 1960.

Tracks like "Svenska Serenad" and "Midsommarvaka" showcase Ericson's versatility as an artist, blending traditional Swedish folk influences with contemporary jazz sensibilities. It's like ABBA meets Miles Davis, and it works like a charm.

But don't be fooled by the album's seemingly breezy exterior - there's a depth and complexity lurking beneath the surface. Ericson's masterful phrasing and nuanced tone keep listeners on their toes, never quite sure where the music will take them next.

In a world oversaturated with cookie-cutter jazz albums, Stockholm Sweetnin' stands out like a glittering disco ball at a funeral. Rolf Ericson may not be a household name, but after spinning this record, you'll wonder why he isn't. So grab your dancing shoes and prepare to be swept off your feet by this sweet Stockholm surprise.
