Answer
Boogie-Woogie, the answer to the question, was a popular piano style that originated in the African-American communities of the Southern United States in the late 19th century. It is characterized by its fast tempo, intricate right-hand patterns, and walking bass lines in the left hand. Hooker's boogie style, known as "Boogie Chillen," incorporated elements of blues, jazz, and country music, while Boogie-Woogie was more focused on a driving, repetitive rhythm.
