When Cool Was Hot - The Boogie Woogie Era.mp3
Let your backbone slip because we're taking a trip back to when hipsters, flipsters and finger-poppin' daddies knew what hot really was. Hot was the sound booming out of AM radio speakers across the country and that sound was Meade "Lux" Lewis and his partner in cool, excuse me, HOT, Albert Ammons and a host of others rocking their pianos with a right-handed strumming style that was all the rage.
The New Orleans-based Boogie Woogie style took its roots in the barrelhouses and shacks of the Deep South before migrating west into Texas and up the Mississippi on into Chicago - blazing a trail for other genres like the Delta Blues.
This hour is dedicated to the Boogie Woogie maestros of the late 1930s and '40s, the shouters, the noisemakers and the heppest cats in the known universe.
