Editorial Reviews

From Jazziz

Emotive but never saccharine, this joyous jazz features B-3 master Louiss in beautifully sequenced trio and big-band settings. Born Edouard Louise in Paris in 1941, Louiss studied trumpet and piano and, by the early '60s, was performing in various Paris nightclubs. Ultimately, he fixed on the organ. He is, perhaps, best known for working with Michel Legrand and American expatriates Johnny Griffin and Kenny Clarke. He has also performed with Stan Getz, Jean-Luc Ponty, and Michel Petrucciani, the tiny pianist with the big hands to whom he dedicates "Le Destin." At times, Louiss' depth of groove and bravura recalls the Smiths (Jimmy and Johnny Hammond), but he has his own saucy, gallic style: insouciant, witty, and eccentric. While he is blues-influenced, his harmonics are unpredictable and his tonalities make sharp turns. The tracks on this lengthy and warm-hearted album span the rueful, velvety title tune; the symphonic, big-band "Le Destin"; and "Enlac3/4s," a fascinating, romantic samba. Along the way, revel in "Cahin-caha," a mix of staggered, call-and-response voicings with a beat that evokes African highlife. Its blend of delirium and discipline typifies the disc. Louiss' voicings evoke everyone from Ellington to Mancini to Gil Evans but never lose their distinctive, Continental wit. Soloists Xavier Cobo (his tenor sax burns on "Cahin-caha") and altoman Daniel Huck (sharp and sensual on the New Orleans-styled "Celestin") make the proceedings even livelier.

4.0 out of 5 stars unique instrumentation...interesting original compositions., September 27, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sentimental Feeling (Audio CD)
I was more than pleasantly surprised when finding the Eddy Louiss CD in the new releases in our broadcast studio at KMHD,Public radio. It's unique sound is due in part to a large ensemble that is brass-heavy and to the great original tunes that Louiss wrote to compliment his idea for this group of musicians. Kudos to Dreyfus for having the foresight to put out such interesting music and to Mr. Louiss for being a visionary in presenting this material. Great music.
