Customer Reviews of Boogie in Blue
A forgotten great of jazz I've shown this video to several of my friends, and they've all found it to be as incredible as I did. Harry's music was right up there in quality with Louis Jordan, Cab Calloway and other greats of the '40s. This video is a very moving portrait of Harry both in his prime and later in life. Harry was a fine boogie-woogie piano player, one of the fastest, and his contortions were a model for such rock performers as Jerry Lee Lewis. Unfortunately, he became best known for two things: novelty songs (like 4-F Ferdinand the Frantic Freak) and heavy drug use. His 40s recordings seem to be out-of-print, (if they're back in print when you read this, BUY THEM!) and the recordings available on CD do not present him at his best. The rare clips from the 1940s in this video present Harry in his prime, and his performance remains unrivalled.
