A Portrait of Jon Larsen is a compilation album by Norwegian jazz guitarist Jon Larsen that was released on his label, Hot Club Records.
Review
Larsen is celebrated on this album, which collects his best recordings from the past twenty years. It shows the acoustic string swing enthusiast he is, with vibrant, energetic original compositions that honor and continue the legacy of Django Reinhardt. But there is also room for variation and other genres, especially the tracks taken from Strange news from Mars project stand out. The guitar virtuoso is one of our most productive and open-minded musicians. Here are a number of stories from his diverse career.
Reception
The Norwegian newspaper Hamar Arbeiderblad gave the album five stars, while the Norwegian newspaper Romerikes Blad gave it six.
