Favorite Jerusalem-song? Hard to pick one. There are so many good ones. One good song is "Pappa vem har gjort" ("Daddy Who Has Made")
Books you read I mostly read different kinds of technical literature, never novels and such.
Best Jerusalem-memory

Maybe when we performed in Riga 1997 at two cram-full arenas. Such nice concerts.

Funniest Jerusalem-memory

The US-tours back in the 80's. They are full of funny memories.

Favorite Bible verse

1 Corinthians 13

Favorite food

Fillet of beef and I like the steak rare.

Favorite music

I like much music. During I grew up I listened a lot to symphonic rock, like Genesis, Yes, Emmerson Lake and Palmer and so on. I also listened quite a lot to jazz-rock like Brand X etc. Sometimes it's nice to just put on an acoustic record. All depends on the mood.

Favorite artist The Flower Kings, Planet X, Medeski Martin and Wood, Anders Widmark and so on.
Instruments that you play My favorite instrument is Hammond Organ, but I also play all kinds of keyboards in the band.
When did you start to play your instrument? I was about 16 years old and was member of a choir. One concert the choir was without pianist. And because I used to tinkle on the piano, I was suddenly placed behind the grand piano. All songs had to be in C major though, because that was the only key I could play back then.
Joined Jerusalem 1976
What do you do when not playing with Jerusalem? I work as data systems engineer at a IT-department. I also play in a cover band in Stockholm, together with some friends I got to know when we lived there. We also play some soul and oldies from the 70's and the 80's. I also play in a hard rock band called Heartcry.
