Dann
Hansen was born on January 19th 1945, and grew up in the
middle of
Roskilde
, a provincial town situated
approximately 15 miles
west of
Copenhagen
. The interest for Country music got born in his childhood, where
he as seven year old boy, saw a RCA mono Album NAM “GUN’S AND
COWBOYS” in a music store downtown, and the front cover show a scene
with a duel between two cowboys in front of a saloon, where one of the
combatants lay bleeding in the dust. Which boy could let such
Album passing through, without do something to get it? Dann
saved his pocket money in a lifetime he thought, and after two month he
was able to walk into the store, and with a look as a man of the world,
he went inside and ordered this Album, as was Dann’s first knowledge
to the American Country Music and this knowledge cost 12.95 Danish
kroner as included artist as Hank Snow, Eddy Arnold, Jim Reeves, Sons of
the Pioneers, Jimmie Driftwood and had the number LPM-9920. In his
school years he still loved Country and Tommy Steele, Elvis Presley, but
it was the country as got him going, and gave him countless bloody
noses, in case of in his teens, country music wasn’t cool, and he had
to protect his records from those non country lovers, as often created
scars. He learnt the Black Smith and to operate with milling
machines, and when he turned 25 years of age, he begun to travel as
supervisor for a firm as made Asphalt plants and cranes, with
battlefield in the Saudi American Countries, where he still collected
country music records and tape, legal or pirate copies. After a
longer period in the steel business, he switched into a medical factory
named Novo as made enzymes and Insulin, and beside this job he started
his own local Radio Station named Roskilde Frequency in company with
some DJ friends back in 1982. After a roaring career their
radio station had to close in case of disloyal competition. The
many country music fans in Roskilde, as had learnt about the Independent
country artists in USA, as Dann had taken under his protecting
wings, after he had been presented for them by his mentor Howard Vokes,
Pennsylvania's King Of Country Music, and across his many country
music friends and artists over there. He has since 1991 operated
on several radio stations, and the latest is Roskilde Dampradio where he
was since 1992- 2007. Dann’s favourite music has always been
classic country music, which he has defended with fist and claws
wherever he operated, and when this new country style begun to sound in
the air, and the labels distributed this kind, Dann
connected his old friend Mr.
Randall Cousins
, and told him to hold back his music and save his money as long his
music was this progressive style. After have discussed it
all, they went into an agreement in create a classic label, where Dann
should act as A&R Director, and the rest is history. His
more than 50 years as country music lover, has shown and given him
evidence in what pure country music is, and Dann will always fight for
the classic and traditional style, as he mention as the American
heritage.
