Our Take

Pull up a seat and let me transport you back to Paris, summer of 1961, with the Les McCann Trio and their vibrant live performance on the 28th of July.

From the moment the first note hits your ears, you're immediately taken on a journey through the sounds of jazz and beyond. McCann's piano skills are nothing short of mesmerizing, effortlessly blending elements of blues, soul, and gospel into a seamless musical tapestry.

Joined by bassist Leroy Vinnegar and drummer Ron Jefferson, the trio's chemistry on stage is undeniable. Each member brings their own unique flair to the table, creating a dynamic and infectious energy that is impossible to resist.

Tracks like "But Not for Me" and "Woody 'N You" showcase the trio's creativity and versatility, with each musician given their moment to shine. Vinnegar's bass lines are deep and groovy, while Jefferson's drumming adds a rhythmic punch that keeps the audience on their toes.

Overall, LES MCCANN TRIO Live In Paris 28 Juillet 1961 is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast. It's a masterclass in musicality and showmanship, and a testament to the timeless power of live music. So sit back, relax, and let the Les McCann Trio take you on a journey you won't soon forget.
