Description:

In performing these standard tunesthat is, familiar songs imbued with messages of suffering and salvationEiler adopted an approach that expressed an internalized piety, rather than the flashy formal distortions seen in his earlier recordings of jazz standards in Stockholm and Copenhagen. (ArtLange)A special album that strongly reflects Eilers distinctive style, rooted in gospel and spirituals. It was released in 1971 by OSMOSIS under the title *Swing Low, Sweet Spiritual*.
