Boogie Woogie Barbecue - Mitch Woods and his rocket 88s

Mitch Woods and His Rocket 88s
have been the torchbearers of a great American blues musical heritage, not for two years but two decades. Taking their inspiration from the great jump n' boogie outfits of the late 40s and
early 50s, they breathe fresh life into the music that gave birth to rock n'
roll. Woods styled his group after the jumpin' n' jivin', shoutin' n'
honkin', pumpin' n' poundin' bands of Louis Jordan, Wynonie Harris, Joe and
Jimmy Liggins, Amos Milburn, and Roy Milton. Adding a healthy dose of New
Orleans rhythm and blues, piledrivin' piano, and some of his own
contemporary playful lyrics, Woods and His Rocket 88s forge their own brand
of music they call "rock-a-boogie."
