Description
Available to a wide audience for the very first time on Compact Disc two of keyboard legend Ramsey Lewis’s classic Eighties albums "Routes” & "Three Piece Suite”.
The "Routes” album sees his collaboration with Earth Wind & Fire continue after the Success of the "Sun Goddess” album (which is also available on Cherry Red Records) with five tracks composed by members of Earth Wind & Fire, with the remaining tracks written by Allen Toussaint, who also produced the album with Larry Dunn of Earth Wind & Fire. ‘Whisper Zone’ and ‘Colors In Space’ being the stand out tracks from the album. · 1981’s "Three Piece Suite” sees a softer Jazzier side of Ramsey, and his Piano playing style is probably more evident on this album than on "Routes”, There is even a cover version of Michael Jackson’s ‘She’s Out Of My Life.’
With sleeve notes from MOJO’s Lois Wilson this superb two on one package should hit the right note sales wise for the gifting season.
