4.0 out of 5 stars Piano Red doesn't dissapoint, February 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Atlanta Bounce (Audio CD)

This CD is a real treat for those who heard "Red's Boogie" in the early 50s, and wondered why there wasn't more. Well there has been much, much more, but it has not enjoyed a very wide audience. That probably won't change, but for those willing to look, the rewards are great, indeed. There is so much really good music available, now on CDs that choices must be made. No collection can be considered complete, however, without at least some of Piano Red's music.

The first 15 tracks on this CD are just Piano Red and the piano. You get full enjoyment of his piano playing without any other instruments to detract from his wonderful talent. The entire bass line is carried by his left hand, while he plays incredibly good melodies with his right hand. Highly recommended for fans of great boogie woogie piano, and especially for fans of Piano Red. Tracks 16-20, while truly enjoyable, have accompaniment by other instruments, somewhat diminishing the effect of Red's superb piano playing.
