┐ Great album by Jan. A little info ┤bout this fuffens dude: ┐
┐ ┐
┐ Although not well known in the U.S., Jan Johansson was among ┐
┐ Sweden's top jazz pianists of the 1950s and 1960s and commanded ┐
┐ tremendous respect in Scandinavian jazz circles. Johansson (who ┐
┐ also played guitar, organ and accordion) was born and raised in ┐
┐ Soderhamn in Sweden's Halsingland province, where he studied ┐
┐ classical piano as a child before becoming interested in swing ┐
┐ and bebop as a teenager. As a high school student in the late ┐
┐ 1940s, he played locally with various Soderhamn swing and dance ┐
┐ bands, including Gerhard's Orchestra, the Five Swingers and the ┐
┐ sextet of the Benny Goodman-influenced clarinetist Gunnar ┐
┐ Hammarlund. After serving in the military, he moved to Goteborg ┐
┐ (Sweden's second-largest city) in the early 1950s and went on to ┐
┐ be employed as a sideman on sessions by big band leader Kenneth ┐
┐ Fagerlund in 1954-55 and bassist Gunnar Johnson in the mid to ┐
┐ late 1950s. Johansson's first sessions as a leader came in 1956, ┐
┐ although he continued to be a member of Johnson's quintet until ┐
┐ its breakup in 1959. It was also during the 1950s that Johansson ┐
┐ came to the attention of Stan Getz, who spent a lot of time in ┐
┐ Scandinavia and went on a six-week tour with Johnson's quintet ┐
┐ in 1958. Getz loved the melodic nature of Johansson's playing, ┐
┐ and the two had a strong rapport when playing or recording ┐
┐ together in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Other Americans that ┐
┐ Johansson shared the stage with ranged from bassist Oscar ┐
┐ Pettiford to singer Helen Merrill, whom he backed during a two- ┐
┐ week engagement at Copenhagen's Cafe Montmartre in 1960. ┐
┐ Johansson was quite prolific in the 1960s, when he continued to ┐
┐ play bop but also explored the possibilities of modal post-bop, ┐
┐ third stream and avant-garde jazz. In 1962, the pianist recorded ┐
┐ his most famous album, Jazz pa Svenska. Translating to Jazz in ┐
┐ Swedish, the album underscored Johansson's love of traditional ┐
┐ Swedish folk and (according to writer Erik Kjellberg) has sold ┐
┐ more than 200, 000 units over the years. In fact, one of the ┐
┐ things Johansson became known for was his ability to provide ┐
┐ jazz interpretations of Swedish folk songs. Tragically, ┐
┐ Johansson's career came to an end on November 9, 1968, when he ┐
┐ was killed in a car crash on a Swedish expressway. On December ┐
┐ 16, 1968, a memorial concert was held at Stockholm's Concert ┐
┐ Hall. Interest in Johansson's work remained long after his death. ┐
┐ Heptagon (a label that his sons Anders and Jens founded in 1994) ┐
┐ has reissued much of the pianist's work on CD, and in 1998, ┐
┐ Kjellberg's Johansson biography, Jan Johansson: A Visionary ┐
┐ Swedish Musician, was published in both English and Swedish. ┐
