  • I would assume this dates from the teens. This is probably what J.P played at drakes dancing "school" when the dancers wanted something funky.

  • that intro sounds like earl hines

  • great ending

  • According to "Rags and Ragtime", "Gut Stomp" was actually co-composed with Willie "the Lion" Smith!

  • Gut Stomp was published - circa 1945 if I recall, but it might have been earlier - 1939 or so. I have a photocopy of the sheet music somewhere.

  • Listening to this again, the B strain is very similar to the last strain of Willie the Smith's 'rippling water" he recorded in 1938.

  • Fantastic recording, thanks!!!

  • I thought that piano music died with Fats in

    '43 but now I hear JPJ, his teacher, I know different. Thank you.

  • To me this sounds like a funky reworking of Carolina Shout.
