Show Ramsey Lewis opens at VMH Ramsey Lewis show opens at the Valley Music Hall in North Salt Lake for two performances, performan-ces, Friday, April 11 and Saturday, Sat-urday, April 12 at 8:30 p.m. "Pianist Ramsey Lewis is not only in, he is the hottest jazz artists going," reported Time Magazine. "The younger generation gener-ation has adopted Lewis as the purveyor of a new and won-derous won-derous sound." The new sound of Ramsey Lewis, first heard on his Cadet recording of "The In Crowd," won virtually overnight success for the tall, academic looking Chicagoan, who has led his own trio since 1955. Today, twelve years later, Ramsey Lewis enjoys the success suc-cess of hearing his unique style imitated by other groups. It's a style that Time Magazine said is "free-wheeling, come join the party feeling that, Ramsey candidly admits, is the only way to make jazz a salable item that people will understand, under-stand, enjoy and pay for." Without question Ramsey Lewis Lew-is has become number one jazz attraction in night clubs and among the college and university univer-sity set and continues to receive re-ceive top rating in all national music polls. Tickets are now on sale at Valley Music Hall box office in North Salt Lake and may be charged at all Sears, Castleton, ZCMI, KOB and the Merc Department De-partment stores. |
