The word boogie dates to the 14th century. "Bugge" meant phantom or
ghost. A similar word, "booger" may originate in West Africa - the
Mandingo word "bug" was associated with a fast drumbeat in the
performance of voodoo music. Somehow the two words converged.
"Booger" was applied to a form of piano rag which evolved into boogie-woogie. At some time the word 'boogie' became a euphemism for sex. "Boogie-woogie" music was now a form of barrelhouse piano and a vocal expression of sexual prowess.
Boogie-woogie traveled out from the south, finding strongholds in Kansas City, Chicago and St. Louis. Jimmy Yancey, Meade Lux Lewis, Jabbo Williams and Pete Johnson all helped spread the faith.
Cleo (Cleopatra) Brown was one of the first recorded female boogie-woogie pianists/singers. She learned boogie from her brother Everett. Her popular Cleo's Boogie is included here.
Also important was Mary Lou Williams, the most significant female jazz artist during the 1930s. She joined Andy Kirk's band, as pianist and arranger. She also wrote for Goodman, Hines, Armstrong and Ellington. With Kirk she waxed Boogie Woogie Cocktail, one of the most skilfully created boogies ever recorded.
Also included are "The Queen of Boogie," Hadda Brooks, Hazel Scott, Martha Davis, Lil Armstrong Hardin, Beryl Booker, Sarah McLawler and Anna Mae Woodburn. These women and the many others featured proved, once again, the old adage that to succeed women have to be twice as good? Not content with that - they provided a large slice of glamour as well.

La palabra boogie data del siglo XIV. "Bugge" significaba fantasma o fantasma. Una palabra similar, "booger", puede tener su origen en África Occidental: la palabra mandinga "bug" se asociaba a un rápido golpe de tambor en la interpretación de la música vudú. De alguna manera, las dos palabras convergieron.
"Booger" se aplicó a una forma de trapo de piano que evolucionó a boogie-woogie. En algún momento la palabra "boogie" se convirtió en un eufemismo para el sexo. La música del "boogie-woogie" era ahora una forma de piano de barril y una expresión vocal de la destreza sexual.
El boogie-woogie viajó desde el sur, encontrando baluartes en Kansas City, Chicago y San Luis. Jimmy Yancey, Meade Lux Lewis, Jabbo Williams y Pete Johnson ayudaron a difundir la fe.
Cleo (Cleopatra) Brown fue una de las primeras pianistas/cantantes de boogie-woogie grabadas. Aprendió el boogie de su hermano Everett. Su popular Cleo's Boogie se incluye aquí.
También fue importante Mary Lou Williams, la artista femenina de jazz más importante de la década de 1930. Se unió a la banda de Andy Kirk, como pianista y arreglista. También escribió para Goodman, Hines, Armstrong y Ellington. Con Kirk grabó "Boogie Woogie Cocktail", uno de los boogies más hábiles jamás grabados.
También se incluye a "La Reina del Boogie", Hadda Brooks, Hazel Scott, Martha Davis, Lil Armstrong Hardin, Beryl Booker, Sarah McLawler y Anna Mae Woodburn. Estas mujeres y muchas otras demostraron, una vez más, el viejo adagio de que para triunfar las mujeres tienen que ser el doble de buenas... No contentas con eso, también aportaron una gran dosis de glamour.
