Pat Flowers
Perhaps the most prolific Fats Waller imitator, PAT FLOWERS recorded steadily for V-DISC, HIT and VICTOR through the 40s. He cut over 30 titles in New York in most of the styles then available to a black pianist, including blues, boogie, vaudeville and even Chopin waltzes and Bach preludes. Flowers cut Ain't That Just Like A Woman for VICTOR in 1946, the same year that its co-writer, Louis Jordan, scored with it on DECCA; unlike Jordan though, Flowers updated it some ten years later. By then, as the other side, Rock-Sock The Boogie, so aptly demonstrates, the distinctions between boogie and rock 'n' roll had become hopelessly blurred.
