Jim Hession/ Master of Stride, plays The Lion’s“ FingerBuster“

New piano CD’s are available now on: Filmed at the Word Of Mouth Studio in New Orleans,Jim pays tribute to the genius of Willie “The Lion“ Smith. Smith’s unique brand of stride piano relied on classical technique merged with the heavily accented New York Style(Harlem) Stride piano-originated by the elder statesman, Eubie Blake. This “FingerBuster“ is not to be confused with JellyRoll Morton’s “Fingerwrecker,“ which Jim Hession performs also on could easily be considered a “fingerbreaker“!.
