-JAZZ DANCE SCHOOL ACADEMY!-


















JAZZ TRACK
by Dennis Wiley
This week focus on 2 French records made for jazz lessons. Dennis Wiley used to be the composer and pianist for THE PETERS SISTERS in the 50's and 60's. When the band has splited, he recorded and composed numerous scores for dance shows and ballets all over the world. JAZZ TRACK lp is played by a trio, piano,bass and drums. Maybe you should start by listening to "Things are gonna change"(the chorus reminds me Cortex's"Mary & Jeff" atmosphere), the intense"Barrio Chino" and "Karaté walk", which are, to me, the best tracks... And then if you're seduced,you will like the rest! I've upload 6 cuts from the lp...

This one is "obscureless", but is worth'while to figures here on this choice...
It's a duet here: organ and drums! And let me take the wraps off
the drums....They are thick! The mixing of this record is awesome...
Listen to 3 cuts of this...Are you jazz dancin'?
