"1955. La Brasserie de la Cigale ou Harlem à Paris. Entre Dixieland, Middle Jazz et Rhythm n’ Blues, le sextet du tromboniste guadeloupéen Al Lirvat nous offre un feu d’artifice de groove et de swing. Rare performance du saxophoniste américain Benny Waters, au meilleur de sa forme. Un document exceptionnel et historique à tous points de vue." Jean-Pierre Meunier "1955. The Brasserie de la Cigale was the Parisian Harlem. Influenced by Dixieland, Middle Jazz and Rhythm ‘n Blues, the sextet led by the Guadeloupian trombonist Al Lirvat presents a pyrotechnic display of groove and swing. A rare performance by the American saxist Benny Waters, on excellent form. An exceptional and historic document in every way."
