If you have trouble keeping track of the "reds,"
Rufus G. Perryman was "Speckled Red," while
William Lee Perryman was either "Piano Red" or "Doctor Feelgood." In addition,
Speckled Red's style contained more rag and folk elements than "Piano Red"'s, as this set reveals. But both reds talked a lot trash, and
Speckled Red had a lighter barrelhouse approach than his younger brother.
