The Original Rockin' Boogie-Woogie!

09/05/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Yeah, this is the real deal: before the '50s revival of boogie-woogie and the invention of rock-a-billy, there was Albert Ammons and the original late '30s boogie-woogie--which was part of the natural evolution of jazz piano from the early ragtime of Joplin, via the stride of Morton and Johnson. A rockin' good disc!"
