Permanent Hasselgard album for sale Product Description
Permanent Hasselgard album for sale by Stan Hasselgard was released Dec 25, 1999 on the Phontastic label. This excellent sampler CD (which does not duplicate the other Stan Hasselgård sets on Dragon) features the brilliant but ill-fated bop clarinetist on a variety of rare performances. The first dozen numbers were recorded in Sweden during 1945-47 (all but three are from 1947) and they trace Hasselgård's development from a Benny Goodman-influenced swing player to one open to the innovations of bop; trombonist Tyree Glenn is a guest on "Sweet Lorraine." The final ten selections are from Hasselgård's year in the U.S. including some songs from his own combos, a meeting with vibraphonist Red Norvo on "Who's Sleeps," four live selections taken from Hasselgård's brief period with Benny Goodman's Septet (a two-clarinet group that also included tenor saxophonist Wardell Gray) and a V-disc recording of "Cottontop." This enjoyable release is highly recommended to bop collectors who may not be aware of Stan Hasselgård's talents. Permanent Hasselgard CD music contains a single disc with 22 songs. ...See Full Description

| Not so intresting I wait something special, but I understand that with old records and artists that's not always possible. By a reviewer (Helsinki, Finland)  |
| Good enough for Goodman, ... He is a tremendous clarinetist, playing on these sides in very good form. By Tom (Southampton, MA USA) |
