And this time it's personal, because Lewis lived her music growing up, nurtured by a grandmother who had received Mahalias singing like a bolt from above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch more than a tribute, this work is really a three-way conversation between Mahalia, my grandmother and me. The challenge was to turn these songs into jazz, the 21st century variety. What James and the band [ William Parker-bass, Chad Taylor-drums, Kirk Knuffke-cornet, Chris Hoffman-cello ] conjure with this music is miraculous.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinyl.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49973450473714,"sku":"642623801314","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/4233047-3018997.jpg?v=1787605176","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/james-brandon-lewis-for-mahalia-with-love-2lp","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
