Welcome to the website of the James Last Benelux Club
'Gentleman of Music and Sound Legend'
In the last three decades of the 20th century James Last was a great symbol and phenomena in the scene of instrumental music. From 1965 on, his refreshing sound brought a great revolution in the world of Big Bands and instrumental music. The innovating James Last Sound broke all old patterns, so for the set, so for the timbre, so for rhythms. Until then Big Band music was mostly under the influence of Glenn Miller. In 1965 Hans Last, 36, dared as first to produce instrumental arrangements of the new upcoming pop music. His party formula “Non Stop Dancing ‘65” was ideal and connected the generations. The train of his success started and the career that followed is still unique. We can pose that James Last and his sound-without-borders guarantee continuing restyling and continuation of instrumental music from a higher standard. For lots of artists and musicians he was the great example.
By the turn of the decades and after more then 35 years of career, James – Hansi – Last is still full of energy, full of inspiration and has an eternal joy of living. This happy feeling is transmitted on millions of fans on all the continents, from Europe and the U.S. into Asia too. His very evoluating productions and concerts today are the equivalent for perfection and quality, a pure musical delight.
