The Montreux recording of the song "Compared To What" together with LES MCCANN made EDDIE HARRIS suddenly a famous jazz musician. Located somewhere between Jazz, Funk and Soul, MCCANN and EDDIE HARRIS actually created (this is not an exaggeration!) something like a new style. The hit became the anthem of the civil rights movement. Almost twenty years later, in January of 1988, at the concert of the EDDIE HARRIS QUARTET at the "Fabrik" of Hamburg-Altona, a fair amount can be felt of the fire that once "set the Casino on Lake Geneva ablaze". The seething enthusiasm of Montreux continues in the NDR recordings of January 1988 in Hamburg, where EDDIE HARRIS and his band played a great concert. An artist to be rediscovered!
