How in the world could anyone suppose that this sounds ANYTHING like Morton?! If the attribution to Morton is a joke, it's a pretty wild and effective one, I'd say...

Joe "Fingers" Carr (Lou Busch) wrote and recorded a "Boogie Woogie Rag".
He was known for being a very clean and (relatively) tasteful honky-tonk player who preferred in-tune, bright-sounding pianos, and usually was accompanied by bass and drums. I think this is him. Yes, certainly not Jelly, but enjoyable in it's own way.
I have no idea where the "Rag" part of the title comes in. Some of Jimmy Blythe's blues are far closer to a "boogie woogie rag" than this.

I don't know who recorded this, but it was definitely NOT Jelly Roll.
