Romeo Nelson Montana Taylor - Head Rag Hop Indiana Avenue Stomp

Review by Simon Wood

Head Rag Hop Indiana Avenue Stomp is a classic album that showcases the talents of two legendary pianists, Romeo Nelson and Montana Taylor. The album features a collection of ragtime and blues tunes that are sure to get your toes tapping.

The album opens with the upbeat and lively "Head Rag Hop," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Nelson and Taylor's piano playing is exceptional, with each musician taking turns to showcase their unique style and technique.

The album also includes some slower, more reflective tunes such as "Gulf Coast Blues" and "My Little Lovin' Sugar Babe." These songs allow the listener to appreciate the intricate nuances of the pianists' playing and the emotive quality of the music.

One of the standout tracks on the album is the lively "Indiana Avenue Stomp." The song captures the energy and excitement of the bustling Indiana Avenue in Indianapolis, where many jazz and blues musicians performed during the 1920s and 1930s.
