    Valoración: VERY GOOD

This is the first album Caroline Dahl has recorded alone with her piano All songs have been written by this wonderful piano lady, with the exception of Pinetop’s Boogie Woogie by Clarence Smith As usual, Caroline gives us a superb performing She shows her bright, well measured and inspired phrasing in every song she does, providing to her boogies a refreshing air and groove enough for not falling into routine This is a good work where, once again, Caroline Dahl delights us with the wide knowledge, the charm of her powerful beat and her well syncopated, lively and joyful rhythm Ms Dahl dresses up the traditional boogie-woogie with an extreme good taste and much swing, which makes it shine with a natural display without excessive ornaments You will find a good dose of piano stride, near-frenzy sounds and excellent bass lines, which will surprise more than one Caroline is a real master of the 88’s and a true expert of American roots legacy Although she comes from Louisville, Kentucky, she currently lives in San Francisco, where she moved about thirty years ago My advice is you should not miss the amazing expressive sounds Caroline Dahl draws off her keyboard and let you be carried by the magic of her tasteful music
