The
fourteenth edition of YHO featured a still of Monica Zetterlund singing Some Other Time with the Bill Evans Trio
in 1965 for Swedish TV. The title of
this issue was very deliberately chosen, and the opening paragraph is
particularly pertinent: “If there is one
thing that propels the projects that are part of Your Heart Out it is a
fascination with how things fit together. This is not in the sense of taking
something apart and analysing it. It is, instead, about finding out how
elements link, often unexpectedly, to form a picture or story. It is all to do
with connections.” In this case all roads lead back to the American jazz pianist
and composer Steve Kuhn, who recorded with Monica and many others.

There
was also a complementary mixtape put together, which just had to be called Kuhnnections and can be found here. Per-Christian Hille provided one of his beautiful
covers for the mix, using with permission one of Erik Stenvik’s evocative
photos of the Norwegian jazz scene in the late ‘60s which can be found on
Flickr here.
