Review by Antonio Rueda Treviño

Yancey Special is an album by the legendary American boogie-woogie pianist, Jimmy Yancey. Released in 1951, this album features 10 tracks that showcase Yancey's unique style and virtuosity on the piano.

The album opens with the title track, "Yancey Special," a lively and energetic tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Yancey's fingers glide effortlessly over the keys, creating a sound that is both playful and sophisticated.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Slow and Easy Blues," a soulful and melancholy piece that showcases Yancey's ability to convey emotion through his music, and "Shave 'Em Dry Blues," a raunchy and irreverent tune that highlights Yancey's playful side.
