Editing Boogie-woogie (section)

====Development of modern boogie-woogie====
A song titled "[[Tin Roof Blues]]" was published in 1923 by the Clarence Williams Publishing Company. Compositional credit is given to [[Richard M. Jones]]. The Jones composition uses a boogie bass in the introduction with some variation throughout. In February 1923, [[Joseph Samuels]]' Tampa Blue Jazz Band recorded the George W. Thomas number "The Fives" for [[Okeh Records]], considered the first example of jazz band boogie-woogie.

[[Jimmy Blythe]]'s recording of "Chicago Stomps" from April 1924 is sometimes called the first complete boogie-woogie piano solo record.

The first boogie-woogie hit was "Pinetop's Boogie Woogie" by [[Pinetop Smith]], recorded in 1928 and first released in 1929. Smith's record was the first boogie-woogie recording to be a commercial hit, and helped establish "boogie-woogie" as the name of the style. It was closely followed by another example of pure boogie-woogie, "[[Honky Tonk Train Blues]]" by Meade Lux Lewis, recorded by [[Paramount Records]](1927), first released in March 1930. The performance emulated a railroad trip, perhaps lending credence to the "train theory".
