In the early '90s, the Da Music label leased albums from the Austrian Document company, reissuing the programs originally on LPs on their CDs, giving them new liner notes. Much of this vintage blues music has since been reissued in a different form by Document, so one has to pick and choose to see which CDs are worth picking up. This particular CD has Clay Custer's historic and haunting "The Rocks," a 1923 recording that is the first piano record utilizing a boogie-woogie bass; the pianist is actually George W. Thomas.
