Description

Choo Choo Ch’Boogie’ is one of the many hits associated with Louis Jordan and his ‘zany’ Tympany Five.  Jordan’s combination of Blues hooks, and Jump Swing jives introduced listeners to the first grooves of Rhythm and Blues and later, Rock ‘N Roll.  This hit for the band spent 18 weeks at the top of the R&B charts starting in August 1946 — and can be viewed as a ‘calling card’ for Louis Jordan’s brand of R&B.
