It was issued in 1964 and consists of jazz arrangements of Swedish folk songs.

All arrangements are very sparse, consisting only of Johansson on piano and Georg Riedel on double bass.

In 2005 a remastered version produced by disc label Heptagon Records was released with four bonus tracks on the CD and the full recording sessions (109 minutes) in a data section as mp3 files.
