An amazingly prolific artist who brought a brisk air of urban sophistication to
his frequently stunning presentation, John Peter Chatman — better known
as Memphis Slim — assuredly ranks with the greatest blues pianists of all
time. He was smart enough to take Big Bill Broonzys early advice about
developing a style to call his own to heart, instead of imitating that of his
idol, Roosevelt Sykes. Soon enough, other 88s pounders were copying Slim rather
than the other way around; his thundering ivories attack set him apart from most
of his contemporaries, while his deeply burnished voice possessed a commanding
authority.
