Biography

Ramsey Lewis is a jazz pianist and multi-instrumentalist, and composer who has released approximately 80 albums over a 50-year career. After several years of live performances and over a dozen albums which only caught the attention of jazz fans, the Ramsey Lewis Trio made a huge impression on mainstream audiences with the 1965 album The In Crowd.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kinda' Old Fashioned But Nice, June 9, 2004
This review is from: Funky Serenity (Audio CD)
Ramsey Lewis had'nt quite shaken off the influences of
the sould-jazz he helped popularize in the 60's so this album
has (by 1973) a very retro feel.Only the grooving opening song
and "Serene Funk" look to a new future.Elsewhere he retreads old
territory with covers of "Betcha By Golly Wow" and so forth.So
I think fans of his Ramsey Lewis Trio period will probably find this album alot more enjoyable as an introduction to his later
electric music,even if it isn't always very jazzy.But fans of
Ramsey's funk are better off seeking out albums like "Tequilla
Mockingbird" or getting a vinyl copy of the essencial 1975 LP
'Don't It Feel Good'.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just for Nights in White Satin, June 3, 2004
This review is from: Funky Serenity (Audio CD)
It's been awhile since I've listened to this. What makes it worth it for me is his treatment of Nights in White Satin.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic, November 24, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Funky Serenity (Audio CD)
This is classic Ramsey Lewis, at his best blending his love for jazz and popular music. The selection of tunes illustrates Ramsey's grasp of music of all genres. In addition to already-known hits, check out "Serene Funk" and "Dreams."
