The boogie woogie bear loves to dance. A goose loves to giggle, a pig loves to snort, and a worm loves to wiggle. BUT when a bossy bird upsets a bat, the bat starts a movement to ban all of these actions. No more dancing, giggling, snorting, and wiggling UNTIL the bossy bird leads a protest to resume all such carefree actions. The boogie woogie bear then gives this advice:So ...Dance,Wiggle,Snort till you jiggle.Be ...Kind,Nice,Smile till you giggle!

Book Description
The setting for this story is the rural southeast, in the Smoky Mountains, in the 1930¿s when most homes had no electricity. Television was in the experimental stages and most radios in homes were powered by batteries that required frequent changing. Our country was in a deep depression and few homes subscribed to newspapers that carried yesterday¿s news. Those fortunate enough to own a battery-powered radio valued it highly. So the stage is set for my story. For those who are not familiar with Boogie Woogie, it was a rhythm with eight beats to the bar usually played on a piano as a fast paced three chord blues that begs to be danced to.

Book Description
The Story of Boogie-Woogie: A Left Hand Like God examines the socio-historical background of the boogie-woogie piano style, from its early appearances in the barrelhouses of lumber, turpentine, and railroad camps in the southern United States, to its emergence at rent parties in Chicago and St. Louis, to its rise as a popular form of music in the nightclubs of New York, to its status as an international craze during World War II. In this enhanced revision of A Left Hand Like God, Peter J. Silvester presents a comprehensive history of boogie-woogie, describing the style's appearance and development, its offshoots, and the pianists who made it famous, and studying its impact on rhythm and blues, urban blues, and big band swing, leading to the eventual revival of 'classical' boogie-woogie in concerts and festivals. Silvester discusses significant European and American pianists of boogie-woogie throughout history, providing biographical information about their life styles and musical influences and offering an analysis of their important recordings. The book also includes a new chapter on the contribution of national and independent record companies to the recording of boogie-woogie music. A thorough bibliography and a final appendix providing many of the bass patterns common in boogie-woogie make this a valuable reference.
