(Harmon Ray - Xmas Blues)
LISTEN
Another Blues slice of the Christmas pie, this time from a cat I know nothing about other than the date and place recorded, (Chicago 1947), and the piano player...Eddie Boyd. What I do know is that not only am I a sucker for Christmas music I'm also a big fan of the piano. For themusicologist it's the instrument of choice when it comes to communicating the message. Favourite players include Little Brother Montgomery, Fats Waller, Pete Johnson, Albert Ammonds, Meade Lux Lewis, Count Basie, The Duke, Ray Charles, Mempis and Sunnyland Slim and last but definately not least...Amos Milburn.
