Les McCann Swiss Movement Revisited With Javon Jackson

Music: Jazz
Comment by: Mike Showalter

Swiss Movement one of the greatest live albums ever

Les McCann's "Swiss Movement" (with Eddie Harris) might be considered by some to be the jazz equivalent of the one-hit-wonder, but what a hit it was. I still listen to at least one song from this album weekly. Recorded at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1969, it's a masterpiece that's one of the greatest live albums of any genre. So will I be going to this? Yes, absolutely. What a treat to have a chance to hear McCann revisit his greatest work.
