Big Joe Duskin’s Cincinnati Stomp is a 1979 recording centred on his powerful barrelhouse and boogie-woogie piano playing. Rooted in blues, rhythm & blues and the Cincinnati piano tradition, the album combines rolling left-hand rhythms with Duskin’s direct, expressive vocals and energetic playing. A fine document of a pianist whose style reaches back to the classic blues and boogie traditions of the pre-war era.
