Lewis Express - Clap Your Hands

Vinyl LP pressing. 2019 release. Primarily based in Leeds, The Lewis Express is comprised of many of the musicians that have graced previous ATA releases. Clap Your Hands is heavily influenced by the classic soul jazz recordings of The Young Holt Trio / Young Holt Unlimited, and Ramsey Lewis, from who this group take their name. As with many of the classic Ramsey Lewis cuts this album was recorded live, capturing the rich inter-relationship between the players and leaving in some of that chunky room noise.
