Blod på spora is a Norwegian version of Bob Dylan’s masterpiece Blood On The Tracks and was recorded with musicians from the low-fi post-rock band The Low Frequency in Stereo, in addition to Brian Connor on keyboards. Blod på spora was released in September 2009, and the brilliant reception led to extended touring all over Norway. The opening track Vikla inn i blått (Tangled up in Blue) was later voted one of the best all-time Norwegian cover songs by streaming service Tidal (WiMP). This special edition contains the bonus track Opp til meg (Up to Me).
