Ramsey Lewis is a jazz pianist, composer and bandleader who has been highly successful and influential in popularizing jazz through his crossover chart successes during the 1960s. This 37-track 2-CD set focuses very much on his first recordings, when he was still in his early 20s, as leader of his highly-regarded trio which stayed together for the first decade of his recording career.
