JANNE SCHAFFER-JANNE SCHAFFER'S ANDRA LP, LP, 1974, SWEDEN


Continuing the posts of Swedish underground goods after the last round's Midsommar, here's an all over the map but mostly pleasurable outing from this string slinger, session musician and jazz rocker, his particular attack landing Andra somewhere between the post-Association PC Toto Blanke/Jasper Van't Hof Euro jazz rock mode and some of Jeff Beck's mid 70's fusion outings, but also manages to evoke comparisons to everything from Mike Oldfield to Play That Funky Music, White Boy; an aspect that makes more sense when you consider that this cat has both played jazz with Tony Williams and acted as session guitarist for Abba. I think some of this smokes, but then the greasier end of the 70's has been a big thing for me of late, so make of that what you will.
