Landslaget

Landslaget was a Swedish folk-pop band formed in the early 1970s. Its members have included Lasse Lindbom, Maybritte Nicklasson, Hasse Breitholtz, Stefan Lagström, Magnus Lindberg, and Kåre Ljunggren. The group competed twice in Sweden's Melodifestivalen, finishing seventh in 1975 with "Den gamla jukeboxen" and third in 1977 with "Sommarn '65". They released a series of albums during the 1970s, including Den gamla jukeboxen (1975), Tusen och en natt (1976), and Northern Lights (1977). In 2002, Landslaget became part of a landmark Swedish copyright case when the Supreme Court ruled that the band Drängarna had copied an eight-bar violin melody from Landslaget's song "Tala om var du ska resa", awarding damages to EMI, the band's record company.
