This is boogie Woogie as it should be played......

The well-known pianist, composer and performer, Dave Taylor, has created a unique blend of Big Band Rock'n'Roll, Rhythm'n'Blues and Jump Jive rolled into one. A critic once said: "I don't for one minute think that Dave has sat down and contrived the history of Rhythm'n'Blues, but he has succeeded in doing so nonetheless. There are plenty of Blues, Jump Jive and Big Bands about but nothing comes close to this for being difficult to categorise. Dave's musical roots can be clearly heard in the likes of Merrill E. Moore, Moon Mullican and Count Basie."

To this day, there are still stories told about Dave's performances (playing the piano upside down or performing unnerving acrobatics during his stage shows; his unique entrance to the venue by parachute, and his inimitable Boogie Woogie playing technique - yet, never compromising the quality of the music). On this CD, we can enjoy some of Dave's overwhelming piano playing, which never fails to impress.

Dave didn't just 'tinkle the ivories', he hammered the keys to death!!!!
