Mid-price reissue of Steen Vig and His Bluesicians' 1994 album <i>Blue Boat</i> recorded as part of the prize he won at the 1993 Jazzpar Prize. Vig was one of Europe's most adventurous and wild players - deep-seated in the older part of the jazz tradition, but hard to categorise as he dug both trad, swing, R&amp;B, soul, rock, and fusion as well as the Scandinavian sound.

Steen was one of those musicians you wanted to hear on stage for the full experience. But this recording is a fine substitute. Backed by a group of some his favourite Danish musicians and augmented with Gene Mighty Flea Connors on trombone (and vocal) and Cornell Dupree on guitar, this album will give you a taste of why those packed evenings in Vognporten were so special.
