What Holds the Flames Together: Matts Arnberg Recordings of Instrumental Swedish Village Music, 1948–51, Canary
  • What Holds the Flames Together: Matts Arnberg Recordings of Instrumental Swedish Village Music, 1948–51 (Canary) (disc 2)

The mustiest, squarest sounding music imaginable. Those poor rural Swedes. This is all they had to listen to as, in my imagination, they ate their meal of nothing but one boiled potato split eight ways, eaten during the scant three or four hours the sun lifted itself a short way above the horizon. It’s a total snooze and I love it.
