Well known, respected and admired boogie-woogie and blues pianist, Rob Rio represents the contemporary new blood which follows on playing in the most pure tradition of boogie woogie great pianists of all time, as were Albert Ammons, Meade Lux Lewis and Pete Johnson If we talk of boogie-woogie in Europe, we should undoubtedly mention Axel Zwingerberger, but in United States the reference name that immediately comes to our minds is Rob Rio, also known as ‘The Boss of Boogie-Woogie’ I can also tell you that if you see him perform live you will enjoy a real genuine show, because Rob completely delivers to his work and offers the audience a complete master class, full of a professional ‘savoir faire’ and total entertainment This new album includes thirteen faultless songs, performed with an extreme good taste, where you will find some blues, a lot of boogie-woogie, piano stride and a little bit of swing In short words, this is an album of piano solo, where Rob does not sing, but lets us enjoy with his magic skill, his virtuoso technique and, over all, his vigorous amazing left hand God has given him
