Jim uses the framework of Pinetop Smith's
"Original" boogie woogie to improvise in the eight to the bar format. Pinetop's Boogie dates from 1928 and was arranged for the Tommy Dorsey orchestra a few years later, becoming a hit again as "TD's Boogie Woogie." That's what I'm talkin'bout...... From 1967-2003 Jim was a featured pianist at Disneyland and Disney World. He was often found at Coke Corner (Main Street Pianist) where this was one of the favorite requests....Jim was featured at Coke Corner, MainSt. USA, New Orleans Square, and for three years at the Grand Californian Hotel, to name a few of his regular spots.
