Lou Bennett
Bennett, 1926 born in the USA, started his musical profession as a pianist in Baltimore.
But soon the sounds of the early Jimmy Smith influenced him. 1960, he moved to Paris/France
where he worked together with Kenny Clarke. He founded his own band call The Lou Bennett
Quartet, and made recordings with it. René Thomas, the Belgian guitar player, was one of
his favorite sidemen. Lou passed away on februar 1997.
