	Ramsey Lewis Biography : Oldies.com
		Lewis insisted on a live sound, complete with handclaps and exclamations, an infectious translation of a fl church feel into pop.
		Lewis had an astute ear for hip, commercial sounds: his replacement drummer Maurice White left in 1971 to found the platinum mega-sellers Earth, Wind And Fire.
		Lewis never recaptured this commercial peak; he attempted to woo his audience by using synthesizers and disco rhythms, and continued securing Billboard Top 100 hits well into the 70s.

		Ramsey Lewis is just about the the most eclectic and accessible musician I know.
		Ramsey has a fluid, facile piano touch at times suggestive of Tatum's; Ahmad, always the dramatist, alternately produces sonic thunder and extracts crytalline, singing tones from the instrument.
		Ramsey can get the crowd involved in a responsive group dynamic, whereas Ahmad addresses the individual listener, constantly keeping him off balance with repetition nad variation, tension and release, even hypnotizing and transporting him into exotic rhythmic and tonal worlds.
