Title: Worst Bellman interpretation I ever heard
Review: I ordered this album to add to my already existing Bellman collection and little did I know that it was recorded in English (should have been mentioned on the website). Also, this is the worst Bellman interpretation I have ever heard. Although Martin Best sings in English, it is hard to understand what he is singing and the style he choose to use was baroque or borderline opera. Too bad Martin didn't do more research, he might have found out that Bellman wrote and sang for the lesser fortunate. Tavern goers, alcoholics, prostitutes etc. a more vulgar, raw and direct style, in complete contrast to Martin's own style which if you ask me, sounds more like an Germanic English blend. I would have given this a zero star rating if it would have been possible.I am waiting for Caiman (seller) to respond. I do not hold them responsible for the fact that the album reeks though I must say that I never would have ordered the album knowing it to be sung in English.
Is the review positive or negative?
