Dirty Linen (p.47) - "Stride pianist James Johnson explores the roots with an orchestra-accompanied rendition of the traditional tune 'Hesitation Blues'..." Living Blues (p.78) - "Such a roster suggests a wide divergence of styles, from the primitive blues piano of Dupree and Speckled Red to the more polished performances of Lewis, Price, and stride pioneer Johnson."
