At age 90 and with a 60 year recording career Dallas singer/
piano player Alex Moore is still going strong. Though his playing is not as
deft as it was and his singing is occasionally a little wavery he still
sings and plays with great verve, enthusiasm, imagination and wit - the
latter often taking on a delightful bawdy turn. The songs here are long with
Alex improvising both lyrics and instrumental work drawing on songs he
learned while growing along with autobiographical images and spontaneous
interludes. Alex is one of the last of the great Texas blues piano players
and singers and his value as a national treasure was reaffirmed with his
award with a National heritage Fellowship in 1987. Delightful music.
