This album was the first to be published in Alan Haughton's Rhythm and Rag series (see EPP84, and Rhythm and Rag for Trumpet and Clarinet). A superb collection of simple and tuneful pieces in various jazz styles, young pianists will love the bluesy 'Boogie on Down', the lovely ballad tune of 'Stephanie's Song' and the cheerful 'Rainy Day Rag'.
