T-Model Boogie, Rosco Gordon (1951)
Rosco Gordon had a long career with several major hits including Booted (1952), No More Doggin‘ (1952), and Just a Little Bit (1960). His simplified boogie-woogie piano style emphasized the back beat, and was the inspiration for ska, the precursor to rocksteady and reggae. Like many other artists of the time, he was cheated out of a lot of royalties.
