Rune Carlsson - Tributes
Review by David Belfort
The album Tributes by Rune Carlsson is a beautiful tribute to some of the greatest jazz musicians of all time. The album features 10 tracks, each dedicated to a different jazz legend, including Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and Duke Ellington.
Carlsson's drumming is impeccable throughout the album, providing a solid foundation for the other musicians to build upon. The album also features some fantastic solos from the other musicians, including some impressive saxophone work from the likes of Magnus Lindgren and Fredrik Kronkvist.
One of the standout tracks on the album is the tribute to Charlie Parker, titled "Birdland". The track features some fantastic saxophone work from Lindgren, as well as some great piano playing from Daniel Karlsson.
