Boogie-woogie piano style was popular when I was in my teens... I remember trying to play it...
Haven't heard it in years... But apparently it's making a come-back ... in Switzerland! Here is the young Swiss pianist credited with restoring its popularity...
For those who have never heard of boogie-woogie - and those who haven't heard it for a long, long time - here is a taste!... and a look at a dance called the jitterbug! (I didn't know the two went together... but they seem to...) Tires me out just watching those amazing dancers!
Enjoy!
(Thanks to Rose-Marie for forwarding me this clip!)
