3.0 out of 5 stars
Shattered and straggly, March 30, 2005
The record that followed his masterpiece, "Den vassa eggen". Two years later this record fell far from its predecessor. A good example of overproduced and typically dated mid80's-sound. Some songs remain among his best, especially "Skyll på stjarnorna".
especially "Skyll på stjarnorna". Apart from that, the record is shattered between the brilliant opening, "Klockan och korset" via pop-alike "Kid", Waterboyscopied "Alskad igen" and some less than memorable songs. The record's loss for direction becomes eminantly clear with the ending, the titletrack with Lundell solo with his acoustic guitar/harmonica. A lot of ideas, a few good ones but mainly not. Maybe better to have kept some songs in the drawer and waited for songs of better quality (which came later with "Evangeline"). Lundell is never boring or really bad, but this one will gather dust in the cd-shelf.
