Ramsey Lewis: Love Songs
by Jason Elias
Sometimes it's a good idea to do a Love Songs compilation. This is one of those times. Ramsey Lewis was signed to Columbia from 1973 to 1991. Of course, during those times, jazz went through many changes, and Lewis was certainly ready for them all. Easily moving from acoustic to electric piano to whatever synths were ...

Maurice Brown: Hip to Bop
by John Kelman
Sometimes it's not a good thing when young artists release their own records before they have the opportunity to pay some dues.

The Ramsey Lewis Trio: The Sound Of Christmas
by David Rickert
Those who purchase a Christmas album are mainly looking for festive music suitable for decorating the tree or baking cookies and not an introspective, challenging listening experience. Thus an artist who records such a record must take into account what the audience wants to hear and not his own musical aspirations, which may be why Charles ...
Ramsey Lewis Trio: Time Flies
by Michael P. Gladstone

Ramsey Lewis & Nancy Wilson: Meant to Be
by AAJ Staff
"Meant to be" indeed! After years of playing and performing together, two of the jazz world’s most underappreciated contemporary legends have once again gotten it together enough to get together on record, and the results are well intended to say the least. The album is a bit misnomered, however, for though both stars get their names ...
