Björk Guðmundsdóttir & Tríó Guðmundar Ingólfssonar
Gling-Gló
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed, latest run of the 2022 EU reissue. A charming and unexpected early document, Gling-Gló captures Björk before her international breakthrough, performing Icelandic jazz standards with warmth, wit, and remarkable vocal control. Accompanied by Guðmundur Ingólfsson’s piano trio, she moves effortlessly between playful swing and tender phrasing, revealing both technical precision and a natural sense of joy.

Intimate, spirited, and refreshingly unguarded, the album stands apart from Björk’s later experimental work while offering a fascinating glimpse into her musical roots. A delightful outlier in her catalog and a rewarding listen for fans of vocal jazz and early-career curiosities.
