All About Jazz [1]

Viljans Öga (Eye of the Will) is the third studio album from Swedish progressive rock group Änglagård, released after the band's near-20 year hiatus following 1994's Epilog.[1] Although the album is instrumental, band members Johan Brand, Thomas Johnson and Anna Holmgren wrote short poems corresponding to each of the songs, which is also the source of the English translations of the song titles.[2]
