Ich durfte kürzlich in eine CD reinhören, die danach ganz oben auf meiner Wunschliste stand. Da ich sie noch nicht habe, kann ich meine ganz persönlichen Eindrücke nur ganz kurz zusammenfassen:
Wunderschön
Für die Neugierigen unter Euch, habe ich einige Informationen kopiert:
Face to Face
Artist Eddy Louiss & Richard Galliano
Album Title Face to Face
Date of Release Feb 12, 2002
Genre Jazz
Styles Hard Bop
Face to Face presents two brilliant French instrumentalists in a pairing as unusual as it is inspired. Accordionist
Richard Galliano and Hammond organist Eddy Louiss make riveting and heartfelt music together.
Their rapport is apparent from the very first notes of Louiss' "Sang Mêlé," played with percussive grit in a
grooving 6/4. Thanks to Louiss' bass lines, the sound is remarkably full, whether the duo is playing tango,
bossa nova, or jazz. The most striking repertoire choice is Benny Golson's classic ballad "I Remember Clifford."
It's a revelation to hear this tune — particularly the ethereal intro and outro — rendered by accordion and organ
rather than the more common saxophone and/or trumpet plus jazz combo. Golson's influence emerges again when Louiss
quotes the shout chorus of "Whisper Not" to kick off his solo on "Sous le Ciel de Paris," an arrangement that shifts
cleverly between 3/4 and 4/4 time. Other highlights include Galliano's jazz waltz "Amandine" (with a fabulous,
airtight ending), Louiss' rousing "Tribute to Joe Diorio," and the sultry bossa nova "Beija-Flor." Together,
Galliano and Louiss refresh the senses with a program that is at once jolting, soothing, and fiercely swinging. —

Ein so schönes Teil. Ich bin ein ganz großer Bireli Lagrene Fan und dadurch komme ich immer wieder auf Musiker, die mit ihm zusammengearbeitet haben, unter anderem auch Richard Galliano und über ihn bin ich nun auf dieses Teil gestoßen! Zu Richard galliano, melde ich mich später noch mal zu Wort, von dem habe ich schon was!
Anspieltipp: Berimbau - aber das ist eigentlich egal, jeder wird einen anderen Titel vorziehen.
