It was early in the Thirties: after emerging from the piano-bars and honky-tonks of Texas, boogie woogie moved into rent parties in Harlem. The fashion had started. Passing jazzmen, converted bluesmen or authentic diehards, the aces of the keyboard here show all the richness of this powerful, obsessional genre that was the most African of piano jazz styles, an essential component of what became rock and roll.
