WEBSTER LEWIS - In Norway, The Club 7 Live Tapes !! Featuring the Post-Bop, Space-Rock, Be-Bop, Gospell Tabernacle Chorus & Orchestra Baby !! (2xLP)
NORWAY / PLASTIC STRIP RECORDS / 2007
IN NEAR MINT CONDITION !!!
Incredible 2 LP set and extremely limited and highly sought after !!!
The earliest work heard from keyboardist Webster Lewis – and a set that's quite different than his late 70s groovers for Columbia Records! The music here is equal parts jazz, soul, and funk – spun out of over a set of long tracks recorded in Oslo at the start of the 70s – and done in a very righteous mode overall! Even at this early age, Lewis is a tremendous talent on the keys – hitting the Hammond and electric piano with a groove that's somewhere in between Doug Carn or Charles Earland at the time – and always with a free-flowing, very exploratory sound that's wonderfully recorded throughout – and which almost makes the record feel like an American classic on the Black Jazz label! The drums on the set are by Jimmy Hopps – who brings in some funky beats at just the right moments – and other musicians include Bobby Greene on alto and Stan Strickland on tenor – plus Judd Watkins on vocals, who sings on some of the best songs with a deep-voiced quality that's really great !!
Tracks include the incredible opening groover 'Do You Believe', The Isley Brothers 'It's Your Thing', 'Club 7 Latin', 'Intermezzo' and 3 more !!!
