Louis Prima - Boogie Woogie

Prima's distinctive sound encompassed New Orleans-style jazz, boogie-woogie, jump blues, R&B, early rock 'n roll, and even the occasional Italian tarantella. Regardless of what form his music took, it swung hard and fast, with a rolling, up-tempo shuffle beat that helped some of his earlier material cross over to R&B audiences. His greatest period of popularity coincided with his marriage to singer Keely Smith, whose coolly sophisticated vocals and detached stage manner made a perfect counterpoint to Prima's boisterous presence: mugging, clowning, and cavorting around the stage with the boundless enthusiasm of a hyperactive boy. Highlights include 'Pennies from Heaven', 'Angelina', 'Sing Sing Sing' and 'St. Louis Blues'. Digipak. 2005.
