Hadrien Feraud: Rhapsody In Blue

Prodigies are certainly nothing new but it's still quite unbelievable when a young talent arrives so fully-formed and so poised to build on the work of absolute game-changers in their musical idiom. Such was the case in 2007 when bassist Hadrien Feraud's self-titled debut album hit people's ears. The then 20-year-old Feraud's take on "Rhapsody In Blue" is still a stand-out on the album for its creative re-envisioning of the Gershwin classic and sizzling guest appearance by guitarist Bireli Lagrene.
