Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars The Best Ramsey Lewis Sampler Available.......2002-07-17

As another reviewer has noted, this is NOT a re-issue of the original LP. It's actually something even better - a sampler of the best tracks from the original "Wade in the Water" LP and from Ramsey's commercial and artistic tour-de-force "The In Crowd."

As such, this CD documents Lewis' last hurrah before selling out to easy listening jazz-pop. It's funky, bluesy, swinging jazz that almost anyone will enjoy.

Don't bother with a greatest hits collection - this is the Ramsey Lewis you want.

5 out of 5 stars Not the same 1966 recording of Wade in the Water........1998-08-04

I made the mistake of buying this CD of "Wade in the Water" thinking that it was the same 1966 release by Chess records which I have in vinyl record form. It is actually a compilation of songs by the Ramsey Lewis trio.

5 out of 5 stars Stranded on a desert island: This is my pick.......1998-06-16

I have loved this album since I was a small child. The music is pure joy...and I'm ecstatic that I can finally find a clean non-scratched recording and get one for my father also. When you listen, be ready to drive fast in a convertable or have plenty of room to dance.
