This record is my homage to John Pål Inderberg. It has long been a big dream to play with him and now the dream has come true. Also a big thank you to Bjørn Vidar, Frederik, Kristoffer, and Odd at Losen Records, for bringing this music to life. You are all amazing! The background for this release is that I have previously released two guitar trio records; LOS 130-2 Poinciana (2014) and LOS 175-2 But Not For Me (2017), both on Losen Records. This music is inspired by the American pianist Ahmad Jamal and especially his trio in the late 1950s with drummer Vernel Fournier and bassist Israel Cosby. Their trio sound has been a great inspiration for me, with their elegant swinging cool jazz, beautifully arranged with playful spontaneity - pure magic! This release One For John! can in many ways be heard as an extension of my two previous albums, thus completing a trilogy. However this time, the standards have been replaced by original compositions. In collaboration with Frederik Villmow, all but one song has been composed especially for this project. It is with great pleasure that we can now share this music with you and we hope that you will enjoy the album. Andreas Dreier
