About This Song
About "Fickle Fay Creep (Soap Suds)" by Jelly Roll Morton's Red Hot Peppers
Soap suds and slippery rhythms: Morton's piano rolls beneath a creeping clarinet line, the band sliding through a bluesy, unsettled groove. 'Fickle Fay Creep' balances easy swing with a lurking unease, like a grin that never quite reaches the eyes.
