Eddie Warner - Eddie Warner Et Sa Musique Tropicale Feat. Lalo Schifrin (Original Recordings Paris 1955) (1955/2014)

Jazz musician, band leader and composer of library music. Warner made practically all his career in France.

As a german jew, he had to leave Germany when Hitler came to power. He continued studying piano and trumpet at the Strasbourg Conservatory in eastern France. The situation worsened and he had to flee further west, to Paris, where he was a refugee. He enlisted in the French Foreign Legion until the end of the war, where he became a bugler. After the war he played the piano in Paris nightclubs. He created his orchestra of tropical music, composed of 17 musicians paid on an annual basis. That’s when he first met Lalo Schifrin, then a refugee touring with a South American band. Eddie hired Lalo as a musician and arranger for his orchestra, while helping him to obtain his papers...
