Recorded live, October 22nd, 1981 at the Atlantis, Basel (Switzerland).

The ultra-fast piano playing of the early-twentieth century has continued to infuse the music of pianist, Errol Dixon. Inspired by New Orleans pianist Jelly Roll Morton (1890-1941), Dixon's repertoire combines boogie-woogie, gospel, swing, soul and piano blues.

Born in Jamaica, Dixon moved to New York with his parents, at the age of twelve. The blues and jazz emanating out of the clubs of Harlem captivated his interest.

Launching his professional career after moving to London, in the mid-1950s, Dixon scored a number one hit with his debut single, "Midnight Train", in 1960. Dixon's resume includes collaborations with Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup, B.B. King and Muddy Waters. ~Craig Harris

This CD has songs, which has been never released before and is one of the best he ever recorded. On this CD Errol plays “Blues-Standards” like “Stormy Monday”, “Kansas City”, “Next Time I See You”, “Rock me Baby”,… but also great songs of his own: “Pretty Baby”, “I´ve Got The Blues”, “Can You Hear Me Baby”, “Foot Stompin’ Boogie” and of course his big hit “Midnight Train”!

Errol was born 1939. As a boy, he moved to New York and later to London. Errol is living in Switzerland and still playing at festivals. The recordings on this CD were done in Vienna 1973 - thanks to Hans Maitner!

The sound quality is excellent and this CD will be a document of a great artist! He is one of the last living original Piano Boogie Woogie & Blues players!
