Best of compilation by Danish schlager pop vocalist Bjørn Tidmand.
The album was part of my parents' record collection, and it's an album I vividly recall from my pre-teen years. I'm still doubtful as to whether I actually acquired this myself as one of my first vinyl purchases, and perhaps then alongside Stop en halv by John Mogensen or together with I Don't Believe in If Anymore by Roger Whittaker. The price tag on the front cover could indicate this was on sale - say in '75, and then it makes perfect sense. Fact is, I really enjoyed Tidmand at that age, and together with Mogensen and Roger Whittaker, he could have been one of my first choices when finding music on my own. Back then, Tidmand soon slipped my mind when music by ABBA and Boney M was more to my liking, and in retrospect, Tidmand is associated with schlager music that I don't find that appealing but who undoubtedly back in the 60s an even in the mid 70s, he was quite popular among my parents' and my gran parents' generations.
