Some say he stole the show that night the fella from Pittsburgh who showed up late that afternoon, missing the sound check and sort of looking like anyone's junior high math teacher as he strolled around backstage at the 1994 Newark Jazz Organ Jam waiting for his turn to play. As I introduced myself to him, I remember his hands being huge, reminding me of what a bricklayer's hands might be like: long, thick fingers and wide palms. I had looked forward to meeting Gene Ludwig in person. It didn't take me long to figure out what Gene did to that crowd that night to get the response that he got and win over so many new fans: He Played The BLUES
All of Gene's recent work has been praised for its energy and hard driving groove. Also of note are the great articles that have been appearing in publications like Downbeat and Jazziz.
