When it comes to the piano, this guy is the real deal. David\u2019s most recent album, <i>Roadhouse Revelation,<\/i> has a ton of piano packed with a variety boogie-woogie, rock and roll, jazz, ragtime, blues, and country. There are some especially catchy and energy filled tracks on this album worth mentioning, \u201cStreetcar\u201d is an amazingly strange and haunting ragtime tune about a lost love and ghost streetcar. \u201cSanta Fe Steamer\u201d is a really great boogie piece with a ton of energy. \u201cCrooked Politician\u201d (my personal favorite), co-written with the late Paul deLay, is a timeless, entertaining, and highly memorable commentary on political corruption. This is an all-around great album that definitely won\u2019t be collecting any dust on my shelf.
