BOOGIE WOOGIE - Best Swanee River Boogie Performances
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ต.ค. 2024
- These Swanee river boogie piano solos are some of the best boogie woogie performances on TH-cam. I’ve carefully selected them to showcase the talent of the contemporary boogie woogie performers but also to highlight how unique each version is.
If you haven’t yet learned to play this landmark song by Albert Ammons then what are you waiting for. Contact me in the comments section for help.
Swanee river was originally a folk song called the old the folks at home, but Albert Ammons made it his own during the famous piano concert at Carnegie Hall where he played alongside other giants of boogie-woogie Pete Johnson and Meade lux Lewis in 1938.

In my top 3 list of the song Swanee River, there is definitely the version of Fats Dominoo. I was at his live performance in New York in 1968. This was great. Too bad I never found an LP, cassette or CD.
Love Lucas piano playingI get great pleasure listening to him!😍
Great compilation - thank you!
Have I missed any great performances, let me know which are favourites? Don’t forget to give the video a thumbs up if you enjoyed my selection. Thanks.
here is another version: from Dr K

Hi there,
there are two other versions I would like to mention.
The first one was recorded just lately by Stefan Ulbricht during his Corona "vacation":

I really like this version with the slow start.
Stefan is often playing together with Jörg Hegemann. Before Corona hit us, they were giving free concerts at Sonjas in Bonn, Germany every Wednesday. Hopefully they will continue with this. So if you are around, it is always worth a visit.
This video was recorded there. Not Swannee River but Sixth Avenue Express :):

And another Swannee River version by Eeco Rijken Rapp from the Netherlands:

His precision is awesome.
Maximilian Neuhaus Some great versions, I forget about Eeco’s version, even though it was his original version I used to learn the song myself many years ago on TH-cam. At the time there was very little to choose from but Eeco has remained a huge influence. He does some wonderful live streams too. Thanks for the heads up on the live performance too.
Love all boogie Woogie!❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
IMHO Stefan Ulbricht has another great version 🙂: m.th-cam.com/video/JiYQVs5J9Kc/w-d-xo.html
Absolutely outstanding and so magnetic that one simply must carry on listening and admiring these terrific renderings of the great Swanne River.

I❤boogie woogie
Nevermind. I wrote it before the video got to his. But I do say his takes the cake
Yes you may be Right about Jorg Hegeman of he being the pinicle of the groop that you have shown in the vidio.!
Thanks a lot for compiling all the great musicians together!
Can I just ask you for one favor for the next time to list everyone with the timestamp in the description?
I'm glad you included Caroline Dahl here. Her laid back, relaxed style suits Swanee so well. Great vid.
Many thanks!
Thank You Awesome Video
Thanks, it was fun researching this one!
@@boogiewoogieboss5894 Awsome. Wish had continued my lessons. Great
Виртуоз супер класса, какие волшебные руки, браво👍👍👍👋👋👋💐🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇷🇺
❎. If he can do that,
I can do that to.
The richness quality
Yeah baby, you go guy💥
🤺💐
Marius is amazing
It would be nice if you could do a teaching series with swanee River and any other song
Hi Ronald, there are many tutorials on the boogie woogie boss channel. I will be posting more as time permits. It would be good to cover the classics of boogie woogie, such as Swannee River Boogie soon.🤠
There are surely other boogie woogie players they are faster, more flashy but none of them can match Dr. John's unique touch, feel and blues licks.
Your a sweetie pie
No one can reach Neville Dickie Version😊
C'est la musique qui fait le mieux sourire et bouger le cul!
Although when listening to it all the volume may have been better having it about twice as loud though thanks.!
Yes I do agree as Rob&Chase bo have a greater sound together.!
And I also agree whith you about Brendan and to add to your side of his story I also like the way that whilst he is a large helper of helping the young to learn how to play the piano aswell.!
Yes Dr. John does have a verry similar type of way to teach piano as the way of Terry Miles does aswell.!
Well I'm thanking you for the marvelous amount of players that you have shown in this vidio as I'm stuk on the side of Dyshart Rd about half a kilometer from Emily street at Seymour Vic Australia as having been evicted from ower farm after the landlord had past away n'd now are living from week to week and being given some supplies from the Salvoes to live as I'm in my vehicle n'd my daughter is her caravan having just enough to survive and having the likes of you and others to entertain us helps to pass the time and makes it just a little more enjoyable to bare the uncomfort way of living thanks verry much fantastic viewing far better than the idiot box to watch.!
The original was not a folk song but was written by Stephen Foster, commissioned for Christie’s Minstrels before the civil war.
Here's another one you might want to add to your list: th-cam.com/video/6FFpT4jBuKY/w-d-xo.html. It's the Frank Muschalle Trio playing Swanee River Boogie. Thanks for all the great music!
Thank you for the suggestion, a great trio and a wonderful version. Let’s keep those suggestions coming everyone, and keep the boogie woogie vibe alive.
Another great Version with Luca is here: th-cam.com/video/3V42YQAqgx4/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Leon, Great find

Lucas is the version I like best.
QUEL BONHEUR BISES

th-cam.com/video/yQlAVy-aos0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=TLVFduvMhNlObyVW - Chris Watson
th-cam.com/video/oeIYpt1Naeg/w-d-xo.html - Leo Oberkofler
2 amazing versions.
They are all good but nobody to compare with Luca, in my opinion
Dr John has the best version of it. His blows all the others away. Completely. Check it out and you'll see what I mean. DR John's is the tops.
