The early piano blues from about 1909 until 1927 are virtually unknown today. This cd cronicles that time period with 13 different pianists performing rare early blues compositions. Many of these tunes have not been heard for nearly 80 years. This is a hi-quality recording. PianoMania released the first recordings of this type some years ago. Midi files are also available of this album. Extensive notes to the music are included.
