I Can’t Give You Anything But Love – 2023

Gunhild Carling

A happy romp through a swing standard

Gunhild Carling is a musical force of nature, a versatile singer originally from Sweden who is also a talented trumpeter and trombonist.

With a sextet that includes clarinetist Max Carling, guitarist Mans Persson, pianist Gerd Carling, bassist Hakan Persson and drummer Roger Berg, Ms. Carling sings and plays hot trumpet on a swinging version of “I Can’t Give You Anything But Love.”

Her playing on this song, which is very much from the 1930s, is full of joy.
