Our Take

Kid Sheik and Brother Cornbread's live album "In Copenhagen 1974" is a delightful romp through the sounds of New Orleans jazz with a Scandinavian twist. The duo's infectious energy and playful banter make this recording a must-listen for any fan of the genre.

From the opening notes of "When the Saints Go Marching In," Kid Sheik's jubilant trumpet playing immediately transports the listener to the streets of the French Quarter. His nimble fingers dance across the keys, evoking the spirit of jazz legends like Louis Armstrong and Sidney Bechet.

Brother Cornbread's inventive drumming provides the perfect foundation for Kid Sheik's virtuoso trumpet solos, driving the music forward with a steady groove. The duo's chemistry is undeniable, with each musician feeding off the other's energy to create a sound that is both timeless and modern.

Standout tracks include the irreverent "Bourbon Street Parade," which showcases Kid Sheik's knack for blending traditional jazz melodies with unexpected twists and turns. The album's closing number, a rousing rendition of "When It's Sleepy Time Down South," is a fitting end to a joyous musical journey.

Overall, "In Copenhagen 1974" is a testament to the enduring power of jazz music and the undeniable talent of Kid Sheik and Brother Cornbread. Whether you're a seasoned jazz aficionado or a casual listener looking for something new, this album is sure to delight and surprise. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple and let the music transport you to the bustling streets of Copenhagen in 1974. Cheers to Kid Sheik and Brother Cornbread!
