Imagine yourself in a smoky, vibrant jazz club in the 1960s. The album opens with Les McCann, a soulful and charismatic pianist and vocalist, playing the keys with infectious energy. He's accompanied by an equally talented group of musicians. McCann's music is deeply rooted in gospel, blues, and soul, and it shines through in his performance. His warm, expressive voice draws you in, making you feel like you're right there in the audience.
Eddie Harris, a groundbreaking saxophonist, joins in. He's known for pushing the boundaries of jazz with his innovative approach to the saxophone. Harris' playing on Swiss Movement is a masterclass in improvisation and groove. He effortlessly weaves intricate melodies, funky rhythms, and soulful solos that make the audience sway to the music.
This classic live jazz album captures a remarkable performance by McCann and Harris, two highly talented and influential musicians. Recorded on June 21, 1969 at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland by the Les McCann trio, the album became a legendary success, nominated for a Grammy and reaching No. 1 on Billboard's jazz album chart, No. 2 on the R&B chart, and No. 29 on the LP chart. AllMusic reviewer Richie Unterberger calls Swiss Movement one of the most popular soul jazz albums of all time and one of the best.
The album and the accompanying single "Compared to What" have sold millions of units.
Pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings, and housed in a tip-on old style gatefold double pocket jacket by Stoughton Printing.
