Albert Ammons

American jazz/blues pianist. Father of Gene Ammons. Born September 23, 1907 in Chicago, Illinois. Died December 2, 1949 in Blue Island, Illinois.

Review: Albert Ammons was an awesome Boogie-Woogie pianist whose style evolved with the Swing era. His recordings with fellow ivory-key titans Pete Johnson and Meade Lux Lewis will still make your jaw drop 60 years after the fact. The frenetic tenor saxophonist Gene Ammons is his son.
