  • An Albert Ammons' medium-paced Boogie Woogie - sheet music is available.
    Ammons' version is a masterpiece which I listened to again and again for years and which set me off on the Boogie Woogie trail.
    I hope you like my version and I now teach piano near Stirling, Scotland as well as over the internet (Ragtime, Rock n Roll and Classical music too.) All ages and levels catered for from complete beginner onwards. All countries welcome too - I have students from all around the world!
    If you would like the sheet music of my version here, EXACTLY as played (for a small fee), or to enquire about lessons, please drop me an email at
    keepoffthecliff@gmail.com

    great version with someone who plays the left hand with enough balls to it that captures the drive and power behind original boogie woogie. Love the way this guy accentuates the notes in the left hand

    This is seriously accomplished playing , it's surprising in good blues playing that a person can go on for chorus after chorus , each chorus with new invention , you've really done that here. And , this made me pretty happy too )

      Hi, different people have different interpretations of the bass for this tune, but I use Ammon's 'tradditional' bass line of -
      C-C-(Eb+A)-C-(E+G)-C-(F+A)-(E+G). (I actually start the first few bars on a simpler bass-line and switch to the full bass before long).
      Hope that helps!

    Please compare with the original .... this is good, but not AS good. Search "Albert Ammons Boogie Woogie Blues". Listen to both versions repeatedly until you know the difference in your body. It may take you a long time .... the difference is subtle, but once you know it --- you'll be connected with the real blues for life.
