£154.60Pungjazz - Frode Alnaes
Pungjazz was originally entitled "Klppfesk" as a part of my musical with the same name composed in the mid 1980's. It's a nice swing tune which Norwegian trumpet Ole Edvard Antonsen made well-known by including it on his album record "Tour de Force" (1992). Antonsen re-named it "Pungjazz" which is a more appropriate title for a trumpet player!It was also performed by Norwegian band "Dance with a Stranger"- Frode Alns -
