Holy shit,
I actually has a track from the said CD on the boc-l swap tape project '99.
It was "Trollmors Vaggvisa", music is a heavy metal version of Edward
Grieg's "In the Hall of the Mountain King" - while lyrics is a kid's
lullaby. Oh-aye-aye-aye-aye-buff. Buff.

Black Ingvars is named originally from a combination of "Black Sabbath" and
"Sven-Ingvars", where the latter orchestra are quite, eh, different in music
style to the first.

The "Sjung och var Glad" (Sing and Be Happy) CD has saved many hours in cars
during vacation trips for those old farts that has turned into parents here.
The kids have their lyrics and rhymes and fun - while you have the fuzz
guitars with well known heavy metal hits. All in the same package!

You won't believe what those guy's can combine - i.e "Främling" is one well
known tune from the Eurovision song contest for some ten fifteen years ago.
Sing it to the music of "Stairway to Heaven" and you know what I mean.

Carl will find not less than four Astrid Lindgren Anthems on this one.
