Akiko Osada With Eddie Higgins

For more than two decades Higgins worked at some of Chicago's most prestigious jazz clubs, including the Brass Rail, Preview Lounge, Blue Note, Cloister Inn and Jazz Ltd. His longest and most memorable tenure was at the long gone London House, where he led his jazz trio from the late 1950s to the late 1960s, playing opposite the greatest jazz stars of this period, including Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans, Errol Garner, Stan Getz, Dizzy Gillespie, Errol Garner, Oscar Peterson and George Shearing, among others. One should mention that Eddie's time spent at the London House Restaurant was with two of the best sidemen that Chicago had to offer. His bassist was Richard Evans. A very prolific bassist and well known in the music community. Richard also worked for Chess records as a producer. His drummer was none other than Marshall Thompson. Marshall was a very articulate drummer and teacher as well as a recording performer. One or the best things that took place at the London House was Richard Evans introducing drummer Maurice White to Jazz Pianist Ramsey Lewis. After his stint with Ramsey, Maurice went on to form the renowned group Earth, Wind and Fire. At the time of his introduction to Ramsey Maurice was a studio drummer at Chess Records.
