"Palle Danielsson is without a doubt one of the greatest musicians to ever appear from the Scandinavian jazz scene. He has made a worldwide impact, together with artists such as Keith Jarrett, Michel Petrucciani, Charles Llloyd and Elvin Jones, to mention a very few. 'Contra Post' is actually Palle’s only full length album as a leader (so far), and when it first came out, it completely knocked me off my feet. This amazing group, with Joakim Milder, Rita Marcotulli and Anders Kjellberg, was really something special, and the tracks with Goran Klinghagen on guitar are beautiful. All of you who have heard this album before, already know that the recording made by Jan Erik Kongshaug is outstanding. For some people, it might seem crazy to release it on vinyl, since it is not as clean sounding as the CD or digital releases of this album, but for me and other vinyl freaks the occasional snaps and crackles, and the vinyl warmth gives us an optional beautiful way to enjoy Palle and the magnificent band. All of us who have been fortunate to encounter Palle’s musicality up close are blessed, and may he and his music live forever!" — Jonas Kullhammar
