Our Take

Lionel and Stephane Belmondo, along with their band of merry music-makers, have resurrected the legendary music of the Grateful Dead in their latest album "Deadjazz". With Eric Legnini on keys, Laurent Fickelson on guitar, Thomas Bramerie on bass, and Dre Pallemaerts on drums, this supergroup delivers a jazz-infused tribute to the iconic American rock band.

The album kicks off with a groovy rendition of "Truckin'", which sets the tone for the rest of the record. The Belmondo brothers' smooth trumpet and saxophone melodies blend seamlessly with Legnini's soulful piano playing, creating a captivating sound that pays homage to the Dead while adding their own unique twist.

Tracks like "Friend of the Devil" and "Casey Jones" are transformed into jazz masterpieces, with each musician bringing their own flair to the table. Fickelson's guitar solos are electrifying, while Bramerie and Pallemaerts provide a solid foundation for the band to build upon.

"Deadjazz" is a refreshing take on the Grateful Dead's music, breathing new life into classic songs with a modern jazz sensibility. Whether you're a die-hard Deadhead or a casual fan of jazz, this album is sure to have you tapping your toes and grooving along.

In conclusion, Lionel and Stephane Belmondo, along with their talented bandmates, have crafted a delightful homage to the Grateful Dead that is as funky as it is innovative. "Deadjazz" is a must-listen for music lovers of all stripes.
