Review by Scott Yanow
Eddy Louiss is one of the most underrated organists of all time, probably because he has always been based in his native France. This 1991 CD puts the focus on the talented and fairly original organist, whose style falls between Jimmy Smith and Wild Bill Davis. Joined by guitarist Rene Thomas and drummer Kenny Clarke for a studio set (the only one by this particular trio), Louiss performs two basic originals (including Clarke's "Don't Want Nothin'," awhich uses the "Ja Da" chord changes), Miles Davis' "Nardis," a heated version of "Hot House," Horace Silver's catchy "No Smoking" and "You've Changed." An excellent all-around showcase that serves as a fine introduction to the very viable organist.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Eddy Louiss es uno de los organistas más infravalorados de todos los tiempos, probablemente porque siempre ha estado radicado en su Francia natal. Este CD de 1991 pone el foco en el talentoso y bastante original organista, cuyo estilo se sitúa entre Jimmy Smith y Wild Bill Davis. Acompañado por el guitarrista René Thomas y el baterista Kenny Clarke para un set de estudio (el único de este trío en particular), Louiss interpreta dos originales básicos (incluyendo "Don't Want Nothin'" de Clarke, que utiliza los cambios de acordes de "Ja Da"), "Nardis" de Miles Davis, una acalorada versión de "Hot House", la pegadiza "No Smoking" de Horace Silver y "You've Changed". Una excelente muestra de todo ello que sirve como una buena introducción al muy viable organista.
