Why Stride?
"You get that right tickin' rhythm, man, and its ON!"
--Fats Waller

In its heydey, nearly 90 years ago, this jazz reflected
and celebrated emancipation from the old world form.

Since today this emancipation continues as freedom spreads
around the world, this album serves as a celebration of
our freedom enshirned in this unique American musical form.

This album came about as a result of regular and persistent requests
in response to Evan's regular piano video posts at: https://www.tradebit.com
