"We Could Be Flying," originally released in 1975 by Karin Krog, the world-renowned jazz singer from Norway, has been loved as a rare and classic album. While it is a Karin Krog leader album, the presence of New York pianist Steve Kuhn, who also contributed to the composition of 4 of the 9 tracks as a backing leader, results in a masterpiece that blends mellow, relaxed comfort with a jazzy groove. The album kicks off with the title track "We Could be Flying," where a solid rhythm intertwines with Karin's soulful vocals. This is followed by "Meaning Of Love," composed by Kuhn, where his mellow and pleasant piano playing seems to drive the piece forward. From the very beginning, the album delivers a sound that jazz-rock fans will love. The fourth track is a cover of Joni Mitchell's "All I Want," which not only captures the comfort of jazz but also showcases the groove of the instrumentation, including the interplay between drums and piano, reaching its peak. It's a superb piece that should be heard not only by jazz fans but also by fans of rock and American music. The sixth track, "Raindrops, Raindrops," and "Hold Out Your Hand" are danceable samba-style tracks, making this a wonderfully varied and impressive album!
