Ludivine Issambourg – Above The Laws [Heavenly Sweetness]

“Above The Law” is the third solo release from Parisian Flautist LudivineA Issambourg. The eleven track release is an intoxicating brew of jazz funk with a array of musicians bringing these compositions to life. Eric Legnini’s sunny flurries on the Fender Rhodes compliment Issambourg’s flute melodies on “The Bear”. The horn section is equally compelling. Alexandre Herichon’s trombone stands out among the ensemble of saxophonists on board. “Angel Dust”, the Gil Scott Heron hit receives a rework with none other than Brian Jackson. Jackson, of course was part of the duo that composed the original and his vocals add a fresh take on the classic. “Heartbeat” opens with a laid back funky bass groove from Xavier Zolli. Issambourg’s passionate soloing is the icing on the cake. Issambourg’s prowess of her instrument is on full display here. There’s a hint of the Mizell brothers vibe as the worlds of jazz and funk blend seemlessly. Overall it’s a statement from Issambourg that she can compose tasty grooves with the best of them. A deeply satisfying record without a doubt.
