Williams: Achin' Heart Blues, Texas Moaner Blues, Richard M. Jones: Jazzin' Babies Blues.For your next house rent party. The promise of novelty piano is not a far jump later to Monk and then Jaki Byard. Contemporaneous band tunes are added here in deference to the horns and banjo that gave a pianist like Johnson an orchestra. Assembled therein by Clarence Williams is an All Star lineup of Armstrong and Bechet with Charlie Irvis on trombone for Texas Moaner Blues. Then composer Richard M. Jones delivers his own blues not far afield from Johnson. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
