Tuts Washington • New Orleans Piano Professor

Review by Ron Wynn

Venerable New Orleans pianist Tuts Washington didn't get many chances to record during his lifetime. This 1983 session, now available on CD, was his most extensive project, with 23 songs covering everything from spirituals to traditional jazz numbers, pop pieces, novelty tunes, blues, and country. Washington played them all in a seamless manner, displaying the mix of boogie-woogie and barrelhouse riffs, R&B, blues, and gospel elements, Afro-Latin and Caribbean rhythmic accents, and jazz phrasing and licks mastered through many decades of playing in bars and clubs. This was his chance in the spotlight, and Washington didn't waste it.

Reseña de Ron Wynn

El venerable pianista de Nueva Orleans Tuts Washington no tuvo muchas oportunidades de grabar durante su vida. Esta sesión de 1983, ahora disponible en CD, fue su proyecto más extenso, con 23 canciones que abarcaban desde espirituales hasta números de jazz tradicionales, piezas pop, melodías novedosas, blues y country. Washington los tocó todos a la perfección, mostrando la mezcla de riffs de boogie-woogie y barrelhouse, R&B, blues y elementos de gospel, acentos rítmicos afro-latinos y caribeños, y frases de jazz y lametones dominados a través de muchas décadas de tocar en bares y clubes. Esta era su oportunidad en el centro de atención, y Washington no la desperdició.
