'Boogie Bob' Baldori of The Woolies on career, new film

w.r. richards/WKAR

Pianist Bob Baldori's musical career has led him to countless gigs with the likes of Chuck Berry, John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters.

In recent years, “Boogie Bob” has spent a lot of time playing boogie woogie piano music around the world with Bob Seeley. Their time together has been documented in the movie Boogie Stomp, which the East Lansing Film Society is screening this month.

 

On Saturday, Bob will attend a special screening of Boogie Stomp at Studio C Theater to meet fans and answer questions. Today he joins Current State to talk about his career, the Boogie Stomp movie, and what lies ahead.
