At this point, he was still playing mostly hard bop, which is the style that dominates here. It gets off to an impressive start with four recordings from Johansson's first session with alto saxophonist Arne Domnerus in 1959. After that, Johansson is heard as a trio pianist in 1959 and 1960. The Swede's expressive pianism demonstrates that while Bud Powell had been a big influence on him, he was quite willing to incorporate the ideas of others who came along, ranged from Bill Evans to Red Garland. Like Miles Davis and John Coltrane, Johansson was far from complacent; he believed in challenging himself and continuing to forge ahead.Exactly Like You2:14Where Or When4:04Sometimes I´m Happy3:04There´s A Small Hotel3:14Younger Than Springtime5:50Love For Sale5:40Autumn Leaves3:12Now See How You Are6:40Mack The Knife2:54Serenade In Blue2:59Beck´s3:25Swingin´ The Blues5:36Serenade In Blue (Alt Take)2:51Beck´s (Alt Take)3:25Swingin´ The Blues (Alt Take)5:41Suburban Street3:44\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Exactly Like You \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Where or When \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Sometimes I'm Happy \u003cbr\u003e1.4 There's a Small Hotel \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Younger Than Springtime \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Love for Sale \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Autumn Leaves \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Now See How You Are \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Mack the Knife \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Serenade in Blue \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Beck's \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Swingin' the Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Serenade in Blue [Alternate Take] \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Beck's [Alt.
