Album Overview
Gling-Gló pairs Björk Guðmundsdóttir with Tríó Guðmundar Ingólfssonar for a lively collection of Icelandic vocal jazz. Recorded in 1990 while Björk was still a member of The Sugarcubes, the album captures an early and distinctive side of her career through piano-led arrangements, acoustic bass, drums, percussion, and expressive vocal performances.
Backed by pianist Guðmundur Ingólfsson, bassist Þórður Högnason, and drummer Guðmundur Steingrímsson, Björk moves through playful melodies, lightly swinging rhythms, jazz standards adapted into Icelandic, and upbeat bop-influenced arrangements. Her dynamic delivery gives songs such as “Gling-Gló,” “Luktar-Gvendur,” “Pabbi Minn,” and “Í Dansi Með Þér” a warm, theatrical character that stands apart from her later electronic and art-pop work.
This 2005 US vinyl reissue presents the 14-track LP edition of Gling-Gló. It is an essential collector piece for listeners exploring Björk’s early recordings, Icelandic music, vocal jazz, and the more traditional side of her catalog.
