Sound. True Track Production, Lars Johansson.
Recorded August 13. 2002 at Gallery Astley, Uttersberg, Sweden.
The remark by Rebecca; "much dryer now" refers to some heavy rain earlier in this outdoor concert.
The concert was recorded (GMCD 116) and filmed by Gemini Records as, NORWAY.
Said about the CD:
Joyous high spirits here, despite the fact that the music again from an Uttersberg festival was played over two days, one in torrential rain, the other in the face of a plague of mosquitoes. Becky Kilgore raises the spirits as she seems to on all of her appearances, and her signature version of “The Lady's In Love With You” is a beauty. Lundgren is smart without being too clever. Ascione keeps the tempos as chipper as they should be, and Erstrand himself is in fine fettle. An enduring language, caught on the hoof and proving its durability. - The Penguin guide to jazz on CD
