This compilation examines the recordings of three New Orleans piano-players, ARCHIBALD, SALVADOR DOUCETTE and JAMES BOOKER, each of whom had surprisingly short discographies. Both Archibald and Booker were hugely influential players, and the latter would go on to enjoy enormous commercial success......
