If Like Me You Like/Love This Type of Music, "Boogie Woogie", And Wonder Why, I've Come Up With What I Think Is a Reasonable Explanation: I'm of The "Rock & Roll" Generation, So Why Do I Get All Misty Eyed When I Hear or See Boogie - Woogie... I Think It's Because That's What Was Being Played And Done When I Was a Baby & Toddler & Pre-Teen, ('40's Early '50's) Don't Know If Correct, Could Be... Don D.

If Like Me You Like/Love This Type of Music, "... (show quote)



Because rock and roll is boogie mixed with the Blues.

It's the cat's meow! Interesting thing though, if you listen to the bass line on both those numbers, they're very similar to this little ditty:

Yep. Boogie-woogie, rock & roll both started out as the 1939 big band sound of....

Wait for it....

Way to go ! I get Boogie-Woogie on my Pandora Nothing like "stride" piano with likes likes of 'Fat's Waller, and a whole lot of other greats. This also was a time when the colored folks were great people unlike the pieces of crap on the scene today.

Indeed it was. Imagine any of these modern-day RAP so-called 'artists' running into some of these real musicians and trying to look legit:

I'd almost feel sorry for them.... Almost.

My old music teacher was pretty good with a keyboard. He did the Flight of the Bumblebee once from memory. I'll stick to my harmonica.

I first heard that when Queen did it over the radio as I lay under my 1961 Jaguar 3.8 sedan working on it late in the revenging. I had a spare Jag radio hoked up to some nice speakers and just stopped to listen. I had no idea who Freddie Mercury was or the name of the group, but just as with Billy Joel's "Matter of Trust" and Jo\im Morrison's Doors I knew that this was a hit and the group would be heard of for some time.... Oh, the reason I was fixing th Jag was that it was an unrestored car hat I drove daily, and SOMETHING was always going wrong, usually electrical. Lucas electrics by Lucas the Prince of Darkness......so many many evenings were spent on that car, I had TWO parts cars just to keep it going....
