Add your review here. Fast boogie galore but slow ones slump Review written by John Fitzgerald, March 14th, 2005 There is alot of the boogie woogie piano style you would predict there to be on this record but it's rather louder production techniques seem to drowned this fact a little which works to it's slight advantage because it makes it less predictable though this may not have been the intention. The problem is that there are few slow numbers and the ones included ("Sad blues" & "My big mistake") don't fair as well as the faster songs. Many of the faster tunes fall into the "Bad bad Leroy Brown" style shuffle most notably on "Why I sing the blues" and Dixon's vocals may have been more proper on a soul recording where at his more swaggering can sound like Joe Cocker. However, the opening title track is a good Jackie Wilson type stomp which starts you off on the right foot. Good in that it's not predictable but not many ideas included.
