Glimmer of Gold 2019
The newly released Glimmer of Gold is a collection of Baba Blues popular album tracks through the years. The thirteen songs featured on the album have been selected and arranged with the help and support of music enthusiast Nguyen Hoan Long. The album includes four songs with Swedish lyrics! The story behind Glimmer of Gold can be traced back to Baba’s cover of St: James Infirmary which remarkably found its way all over to Vietnam. The cover became highly appreciated and has gained popularity throughout the years. However, despite the success, St: James Infirmary was initially rejected by Clas and Richard on their debut album Fishermen. The song has up until now only been featured on the album All That Blues from Sweden, a compilation album of different Swedish blues-artists.
