This is a collaborative effort with Gregg Akkerman, author of the excellent book on Hartman, The Last Balladeer: The Johnny Hartman Story. I highly recommend this biography to anyone interested in Hartman in particular and jazz vocalists in general.
The book contains a discography which has been converted into an online version using Steve Albin’s BRIAN software. This will be updated on a regular basis incorporating new information as it is discovered. It is my hope that the discography available here will become a useful adjunct to Akkerman’s comprehensive study.
Many thanks to Steve Albin, Bill Damm, Chris DeVito, Barry Kernfeld, Dan Pliskow, Bob Sunenblick and Jeff Sultanof.
Please email me with any additions, corrections or comments.
