About Tiny Bradshaw
Myron Carlton "Tiny" Bradshaw was an American jazz and rhythm and blues bandleader, composer, singer, pianist, and drummer. His biggest hit was "Well Oh Well" in 1950, and the following year he recorded "The Train Kept A-Rollin'", a song that was pivotal to the development of rock and roll. Bradshaw co-wrote and sang on both records. In 1934, Bradshaw formed his own swing orchestra, which recorded eight sides in two separate sessions for Decca Records that year in New York City. In 1947, Bradshaw recorded for Savoy Records under the auspices of label producer Teddy Reig.
