In the organizer's words:

The funky Side of Jazz

- the music of Ramsey Lewis (and others)

The "In Crowd" is a song by pianist Ramsey Lewis that surprisingly catapulted to number 5 in the US singles charts in 1965. At number 1 at the time was Yesterday by the Beatles! Other hits by the Ramsey Lewis trio followed, such as Wade In The Water, A Hard Day's Night and Hang On Sloopy.

The special Ramsey Lewis sound is not necessarily made for concert halls, but for clubs and bars: entertaining, danceable, funky - "the people's music". Or as the Palatines would say: "Jazz for the people".

The main musical ingredients: soul jazz, blues, gospel, Latin and the immortal songs of Lennon/McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Bill Withers, Carole King and Burt Bacharach.

The trio around Thomas Wind (piano) with Fritz Heieck on double bass and Christian Maurer on drums has dedicated itself entirely to this sixties groove.
