Rob Hoeke is widely considered to be one of the best Boogie-Woogie & Blues piano players ever to come out of Europe. He started out in 1957, recorded over 20 albums, 35 singles and performed all over the world, right up to the day he died on November 6th, 1999. His two sons Eric and Ruben each followed their own musical path in life, but now they have bonded for this special album.

They started thinking about their dad's musical legacy, dug up the unreleased recordings their father left them and started recording their parts to go along with the original piano tracks. The process was emotional and surreal, but they dug in the tunes with the spirit and the playing of their father as guidance. The playing sounds flawless and explosive. Rolling the Blues and kicking the Boogie like only they can.
