    Awesome! Wonderful, uplifting music ! My Grandmother and Grandfather would have danced to this even if everyone else was seated as they are now and the only place to dance was up and down the hall to the stage. LOVE THIS! My favorite author Jack London would have danced to this too!

    It's Darktown Strutters Ball followed by Ja-Da, then Darktown, then the middle part of 12th Street. Four Arrows managed to keep Adam in check till the end, then it all busts loose. Nice!

    I've searched all over Amazon music and the internet....this version IS THE BEST jazzy, sexy, bluesy version of Darktown Strutters Ball out there! I wish we could buy a copy of this performance! [If anyone knows of a way to buy a digital copy of this let me know] Great playing guys!!!

      @@e.goldie6143 Yeah!! Thst was an awesome rendition too! One of the things thst I liked most a out Greg is the similarities he has to Adam. Lots of 10ths, lots of grace notes, displaced bass (when you play part of the octave or 10th and keep holding it and your pinky goes after). I loved it.

      Four Arrows isn't homeless OR a street person. He's is an American college professor, writer, and activist for American Indian rights. In 2014 he was put on the International Fulbright Scholars list.
      You can't judge a book by its cover - or a person by his clothes.
      Here's an interview with him - ua-cam.com/video/oUbDAtsO9Fc/v-deo.html
