After playing with Lars Gullin's orchestra, he joined Putte Wickman's sextet in 1955 before going on to join a trio with Rune Ofverman and Egil Johansen. Admitted to the Royal Swedish Academy of Music, together with Lasse Petterson and Georg Riedel, Nordin was expelled when it was found out that he was playing jazz.
He accompanied several visiting musicians on their visits to Sweden, including Josh White, Ben Webster, Dexter Gordon, Clark Terry, Johnny Griffin, Benny Bailey, Gábor Szabó and Dick Morrissey, as well as playing regularly with other leading Swedish jazz musicians, such as Jan Johansson, Rolf Ericson, Jan Allan, and Arne Domnérus.
