Infectiously joyous. The Hammer of Thor in the left hand, skittery melodic with the right. One of the main roots of R&R, R&B and swing. Here's an overview: http://www.allmusic.com/explore/style/boogie-woogie-d81
The Big 3--the style definers

All 3 together http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrHrbSxUFDI << 5 mins. of boogie woogie heaven

middle period
Pinetop Perkins

Some modern masters
Johan Blohm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFllwby6 ... 0449D77DE3 << w/ The Refreshments--Swedish all the way

Mitch Woods http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4wsAdCVvHk <<R&R history lesson--big fun
Jools Holland and guests Axel Z. and Ben Waters http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dic_cd4sJL8
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QQzbCmlZM4 << who says Blanco Blancos can't dance?

Lastly, something over the top--3 pianos, 6 players = outrageous! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHnQA82B5N4
