My YouTube video “Ladyva - Boogie Woogie Stomp live” by the King of Boogie-Woogie, Albert Ammons, has just reached 14 million views.

It was Albert’s rendition of Clarence “Pinetop” Smith’s famous 1928 tune called “Pinetop’s Boogie Woogie”, a barrelhouse piano piece that cemented boogie-woogie as the name of the entire genre. One of the special features of this piece is the difficult left-hand pattern towar
