03 Hucklebuck Boogie

[@jdelany8026]

I danced to the hucklebuck when I was a teeny bopper back in the early 50's Thanks for the memories.

[@proudtobegods]

I remember one night my mother had some friends over, us kids were to be in bed, but when one guy started playing that piano I was up and sitting in the hall way, he was playing boogie music, and Oh my the house was jumping. I love anything with piano. Just wish I could play I took lessons, but couldn't read the left hand. So I am stuck with playing right hand. But in watching you play, I see the left hand doesn't do much, that it is the right hand that has all the work. May God just bless your socks off on your birthday....THANKS AGAIN for the great music...KEEP PLAYING.

[@RuudvanIngen]

Yes I will! But "deep in my heart" I am a classic piano blues lover ( you can hear it on some of my video's) and like to play boogie woogie for fun and technics. Video 72 snatch it and grab it is now on youtube. and 73 maybe next week Ruud van Ingen

[@wolfzillo1]

RUUD VAN INGEN AND MARTIN & SABINE PYRKER AND JOJO WENDT ARE BY FAR THE BEST BOOGIE WOOGIE PLAYERS IN THE WHOLE WORLD,,,,,THANKS BE TO GOD FOR GIVING THEM THIS TALENT...

[@RuudvanIngen]

There are very, very many technical boogiewoogie players - I think I am not included, I like to give it my own "swing", whether or not it is boogie woogie. Of coursde thank you!

[@wolfzillo1]

KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK RUUD THANKS BE TO GOD FOR YOUR GIFT ACCEPT IT GRACEFULLY AND HUMBLEY MAY YOU HAVE MANY YEARS OF CREATIVITY YOU ARE THE BEST AND KING OF BOOGIE WOOGIE

[@1479712]

I am in love....finally found someone who plays the boogie. My dad, like you, started out w/classical and then put together his own band in Western NY towns of Jamestown/Falconer area where he played in speakeasies and for dances playing the songs and styles of the Big Band era....you know those great love songs with "real" lyrics (he would say). His boogie was tops and Fats Waller was one of his idols...He bought an upright player and converted it for his personal playing. Blues, Boogie & jazz.

[@Bosephus4]

It doesn't matter what he was feelin in his fingers! I just know what feelin in put in me listening to it for the 100th time. WOW! Never heard the Boogie Woogie any better!

One of the best boogie men!! Concentrated energy of the boogie...

[@Makeitliquidfast]

best boogie woogie on you tube, it's the tempo, slower but with style, love it!

[@JohnPanto]

Bendigedig!! Gwell bob gwrandawad!! Fantastic!! Gets better with every visit!!

[@RuudvanIngen]

Of course I do not know how many people look at this video several times, but of course I like it that my "work" is much appreciated!

[@williamkennedy5492]

We had the only Piano in the village and the local cop would come around and play boogie, i use to sit on the stairs as a kid and listen to the laughter of mum dad and the cop, it was good growing up in the 1950s

[@hundegabi]

Boogie ist ein fantastischer Rhytmus, der sofort in die Beine geht und zum Tanzen annimiert.

[@andrzejpronobis6838]

Wspaniały muzyk , z przyjemnością słucham ten styl muzyki . Brawo .

[@RuudvanIngen]

+Andrzej Pronobis Thank you! Now 89 video's youtube

[@ethelnewberry151]

OMG!!! I haven't heard "The Hucklebuck" since the 1950's when I was a teenager. There are lyrics to this melody, too...Damn !!! I wish I could remember them...Thank you Sir!!!

[@stupullenchannel3525]

Chubby Checkers

[@MultiKZB]

WOW!!!! How I wish my Dad were alive to hear all of this sweetness. Thank you!

[@harryschoger3460]

I first heard The Hucklebuck in '49 when it came out. It is fantastic melded with a boogie piano. How clever these Dutchmen. Glad the Europeans are keeping this media alive. How could I get a copy of this song? Cannot keep the feet still. Terrific rendition. I just play it over and over.

[@peterwilcox1535]

I am 55 in April, recently bought my daughter a full size digital piano, and this has inspired me to learn, need to start with some very basic piano though, but if possible, I would like to learn Boogie and blues. One day!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Ruud van Ingen. Best regards, Peter in the UK.

[@RuudvanIngen]

Nice to hear that you want to start playing! Maybe I will see you at the 10th U.K. Boogie Woogie Festival in Sturminster Newton/Dorset on 4,5 and 6 July. I will also perform there.

[@snuffysmith1074]

Ruud van Ingen I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this. I wish radio stations would play more of this kind of music.

[@leonaldobrum]

Haha!... I was watching this on my phone but I let it fall because I started dancing and tapping my feet to the tune 😅 It was kinda involuntary reflex 🙏👏👏👏👏 BTW, I'm 71 ☺️

[@aydintomak9523]

Thank you , thank you and thank you for lovely performance

[@JSP6027]

Outstanding when music is played by someone who loves it. If you're feet aren't moving you're either dead or have the volume off. Thank you.

[@stupullenchannel3525]

Dig that Boogy Woogy ,man you hit it good. Both feet moving to every note...keep the good times rolling!

[@bennyjazzful]

WOW Wonderful version of a great tune played to perfection. From a 71yo Aussie fan.

[@donlomax4373]

[@stubbsatlacey]

Love the upright piano. Reminds me of Jo Anne Castle. I can listen to this all day. No electronics, just pure music.

[@natyiledan5428]

SUCH A GENIOUS PIANO PLAYER EVEN AT HIS OLD AGE. I TRULY ADMIRE HIM.

[@dworkenlaw1]

Hey Ruud! As a Boogie piano player myself, I compliment you highly!! The best thing about your version is using very few notes in the right hand. It is clean, crisp, and simple. The pumping bassline shines through, and the right hand gives the whole thing a bright tone! Thank you!

[@MsLucky1967]

My dad played the piano, couldn't read a note but he said sit down little girl... and told me the left hand is steady, but I will show you what the right hand can do... help me.. then he wanted me to play... music has become

[@petromic1947]

Excellent, You are correct never too old if you like it , I started the Violin at 63 and I love it .

[@rstanley2128]

When I was young in the '50-60s there was a skating rink near my house and I almost lived there on Friday and Saturday nights. The rink had a Hammond organ and the owners wife could play The Hucklebuck like that on it when they had trios skating alone with Shortning Bread. She could rock that Hammond!!!!

Thank you again! Now 83 video's youtube. Maybe this is piano fitness..

[@Texas3Step]

Wow, memories! We lived with my grandparents when I was little, and my dad was stationed overseas. They had an upright piano, and my mother's brother, Robert, would bang out the boogie-woogie on it, while my younger siblings and I would "dance" like maniacs. Robert is near 80 now, I haven't seen him in 40 years. He married a Japanese woman and was a professor in Japan, where he still lives. Wonder if he has a piano, and still plays boogie-woogie. THANKS FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO!

[@jarquontre]

Brilliant! I play this over and over again. Thank you. Let's have some more!

[@LailokenSilvestris]

Watching this has made me put aside my Martinez 12 string & start concentrating again on tickling the ivories. I thankyou.

[@DebbieDenkeMusic]

I have been researching 1940's tunes for an upcoming jazz trio gig and Huckle-buck was a top hit of 1949. I came across Chubby Checker singing the tune, and this is a fun solo piano version. Charlie Parker wrote a blues head called, "Now's the Time" which is similar to the second theme of this tune. This is one driving boogie version!

[@RuudvanIngen]

Thank you for comments. I know the Chubby Checker version, but I "used" the version of Paul Williams and his band, which is the original one. Now 91 video's youtube

Outstanding. You are one in a million, Ruud. I will be listening to this again and again and again. Watched this again. Definitely one of the great performances I've seen on the Net. Ranks among the Top 3 for sheer smooth impeccable play. (Taking into view all the boogie woogie and rock & roll pieces I've viewed on KZbin.)

[@RuudvanIngen]

+Shari Allison I realize there are incredible many kinds of music, everyone will find his own. But I agree this music is much underrated nowadays. But the real pianoblues - also on my video's - scores far less interest than boogiewoogie. Now 87 video's youtube. Thanks for comments

Hello Ruud, i cannot stop listening this fantastic hucklebuck boogie by you! Really great! Thanks a lot and many greeting from Chile

[@jean-jacqueslafortune1642]

Simply Great! Oh my Lord it remembers me how life goes on. Thank you Mr Van Ingen :-)

[@kabouktli]

If I were your left hand, I would have revolted long before 6:00. It's not fair to work hard and steady like a slave, while the master (right hand) is having the time of his life, singing and dancing all around. Fantastic, bravo.

[@crankbv1]

kabouktli. Believe it or not..That left hand is probably one of the easiest boogie techniques you could choose to adopt.. It must be, because due to my now advanced years it's one I tend to use increasingly nowadays. Unlike some patterns,it is very easy on the wrist tendons, at least at the tempo demonstrated here, so you can just let it roll along almost indefinitely. Incidentally, I like your choice of metaphor there, it made me smile.

[@israelrivera835]

You're killing it friend! Great performance! Thanks!
