| The tremendous career this double bass player with a non-stop-name had
already achieved by the time of the recording of his first leader album here in 1975
is as impressive as his technique. NHØP (b. May 27, 1946 in Osted, Denmark)
started playing professionally at an early teenage and recorded with Bud
Powell when he was 14! He turned down the offer to join Count Basie's
orchestra in order to finish high school.
"...a superb musician with a gorgeous tone, great technique and dazzling
virtuosity...This is a great music." (High Fidelity Magazine USA)
"Immensely satisfying, Jaywalkin' is a must for anyone seriously interested
in contemporary jazz." (Overseas Life) |
