I have added some informations about NHØP's name. It might be good if someone would change my clumsy sentences into better English.--Troels Nybo 09:58, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I have shortened it drastically. Actually, I removed it almost entirely and put the popular tetragrammaton right after his name. The rest really didn't contain much information that wasn't already in the title. On the other hand, if we can find support for the fact that "The Dane with the never ending name" is really a title under which he was known (to others than his booking agency and therefore to google) then we could put that in instead.

NHØP was certainly known as The Great Dane, not so sure about the 'never-ending name' bit. He was also commonly known by the sobriquet 'The Viking', both by his fans and his jazz friends. Included here as a point of interest; probably doesn't warrant inclusion in the article. Xyster 14:47, 21 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

He played with Tim Buckley while he was in Denmark. Can you add that to the article? Death2 20:34, 1 May 2006 (UTC) =Jochemvandijk I removed "critically panned" referring to the avant garde recordings. This assessment is not substantiated at all, and too general a statement. Jochemvandijk (talk) 20:43, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is somewhat strange that his extensive work with Oscar Peterson, across 3 decades, does not warrant a mention here. Xyster (talk) 12:12, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
