LUCKY PETERSON @ Ollioules (07/04/2018) 20:30
Blues concert "Tribute to Jimmy Smith".
Blues holds no secrets for Lucky Peterson since he was hanging around his father's club, the Governor's Inn in Buffalo. There, in his element, the child prodigy has made the blues fundamental message his own, the scansion of words, the haunting melodies with hypnotic rhythms. His entire life is a hymn to blues that he still preaches today relentlessly, and his new album "Tribute to Jimmy Smith" is a living proof again. Brilliant. With his band, the artist proposes a jazz tinged with soul and blues. A music that grooves! For this tribute to the organist Jimmy Smith, he plays exclusively the Hammond B-3 organ: all the more reason to remember that he is an exceptional pianist, a flamboyant guitarist, a singer bursting with feeling, a charismatic showman, a composer and arranger... full of talent.
