Our Take

In the dimly lit, smoke-filled jazz clubs of 1960s New Orleans, one man's clarinet cut through the haze like a beacon of pure musical brilliance. George Lewis, a true legend of traditional jazz, transports listeners back in time with his album "Vintage George Lewis 1963."

From the opening notes of "Bourbon Street Parade," it's clear that Lewis is a master of his craft. His clarinet weaves effortlessly through complex melodies, showcasing his technical prowess and innate musicality. The band, featuring some of the finest musicians of the era, provides the perfect backdrop for Lewis to shine.

Tracks like "Ice Cream" and "Washington and Lee Swing" capture the vibrant energy of a New Orleans street parade, with Lewis leading the charge with his infectious enthusiasm. The Dixieland sound is alive and well in this album, with each track serving as a love letter to the rich musical heritage of the Deep South.

But it's not all high-energy jazz numbers – Lewis also shines on slower, more introspective tracks like "Fidgety Feet" and "Dippermouth Blues." His soulful playing evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era, while still feeling fresh and innovative.

"Vintage George Lewis 1963" is a timeless masterpiece that will appeal to both die-hard jazz enthusiasts and casual listeners alike. So put on your dancing shoes, grab a mint julep, and let George Lewis take you on a musical journey through the streets of New Orleans. You won't be disappointed.
