Finn Hauge pops up spottily on several albums on the Hot Club de Norrvege catalog of records:

I'm listening right now to the Portrait of Django collection, where he plays on Nuages, Anouman, Reverie, and Minor Swing (where, for once, he actually plays the theme instead of just sort of dropping for a solo somewhere in the middle).

Looking forward to hearing it!!!!

One of those rare cases is Finn Hauge, who I've heard play on a Jimmy
Rosenberg album ("Portrait of Jimmy Rosenberg") -- he does a great
job, making the chrom sound quite natural in the gypsy swing context.
