Leon’s Groove, a song from Jurgens forthcoming album Opening Lines, can now be watched on Youtube. It is the fourth song of the album of which live video footage is made.
Jurgen wrote the song with a distinict New Orléans-groove by drummer Léon Klaasse in mind.
It’s the last song on the album, a happy closer.
All musicians get a final feature here. Tico Pierhagen (Hammond B3), Ben Mathot (violin) and Jurgen play a solo, and bass player Hugo den Oudsten gets a few bars to fill aswell.
The album Opening Lines will be released early 2016. This December, engineer Tom Gelissen and Jurgen are finalising the mixes. More information about the release of the album and concerts by Jurgen and band will follow shortly.
