This Prophone release offers a brand new tribute by the Robert Wells Trio to legendary musician and entertainer Charlie Norman, whose Swedish show business career lasted nearly 60 years. "From my and Charlie's first meeting in the 1980's and in our fifteen years touring as a double piano act on and off, I got to learn from Charlie both on stage and off; it was a time of pure joy. I've written an all new boogie for this CD called Old Time Boogie with the playful subtitle "It was better in the old days"... The rest of the material is all favorite numbers that we played on tour." (Robert Wells)
