17042014 - Randi Hansen "Ho Randi"

Classic Norwegian visesang! This album is 35 years old this year, and because of that - the fact that it was released in 1979, and not in 1984 - it sounds surprisingly timeless. This was just a few years before the horrible 80's production tricks conquered all kinds of music, from minimalist singer/songwriters to heavy metal, so what we have here is unsullied straight forward acoustic pop music with lyrics about... I don't know, I haven't really been paying attention. Because you see, it's pretty, but boring, and it's actually pretty boring. Randi's voice is the voice of an angel, and you would kind of like her to sing you a lullaby every night, but just because you would be sure to fall asleep listening to her. "Hvis Æ Fikk Være Sola Di" is still classic stuff, though.
