An old upright piano adventure, "the saloon sound", part 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- I've had a lot of request to make another music video playing an old upright, "saloon" piano. So, here it is! This was one of my old upright pianos that I bought and fixed up. I gave this piano to my younger sister, and she let me play it to make the video. :-)
I hope you enjoy it!
I petition to get this man a better camera and microphone!
ThisTomato and every who liked... should we split?
and a microphone* that's the mic included with the cam.
Quick make 2B bot accounts to like this
(Not sarcasm)
I can attempt to remaster this audio.
Rick stay the way you are! Making a lot of people happy with the first part and now with the second part. Love from Germany!
Yay, Germany!😊😊🇩🇪

Hey, jemand aus Thüringen da?
Greetings from cologne 👋

03:06 Camptown Races
04:15 The Yellow Rose of Texas
05:32 You are my sunshine
07:23 Boogie Woogie (improv I guess?)
You can hear it very well on, You are my sunshine song, the sliding notes that are being caused by a damper on the high hat sections of the strings, at least that is how my S&C does it. On the Boogie Woogie I love the varying slide and ringing sounds on the notes of the higher chords. that slithering effect is the metal discs in the base section, controlled on my S&C by the middle pedal.
Great inspiring music and playing!!! This Boomer guy gets more into playing my pie-anner every time I hear you play. I love that you get into singing right along. That's what music is for.
Thanks for posting this!!!
BTW, is that the same $75 salvaged piano that you played in one of the videos in your basement area work shop B4 you fixed it up? Looks and sounds super!
No it isn't, Rick sold that one, the old Schiller, for a hundred dollars, said the extra was for cleaning out almost a hunderd years of crap!!...@@terryisaac8195
Aaah so relaxing music
holy shit, that boogie woogie tho.. how is this sound created i have an upright piano i want to sound just like this.. this is why I want to learn the piano
The greatest comeback in the world
The saloon sound and the house go well together. The only things missing are some of those dancing ladies swinging their legs way up high, and a bar fight complete with chairs, fists and broken bottles flying left right and center!
I was honestly thinking the same thing. Haha.
Lucky Luke the sequel
or a bunch of Navy flyboys trying to pick up women. :)
oof my comment was removed lol, some one is upset from the truth , i never insulted the man lol i love him
Favorite bar fight ever: Hawmps, 1976. The cavalry soldiers from two rival units start fighting in the saloon, and the old barkeep fires a shotgun into the ceiling and hollers "AWRIGHT-YOU KNOW THE RULES! No gunplay, no knives, no clobberin' with anything bigger than a chair. All breakage will be paid for on the spot. And any man fool enough to touch my brand-new bar mirror from St. Louis will get his head blowed off!" And the brawl (not to mention the saloon band) continued. Good Lord, I loved that movie.
This man is a treasure and must be cherished.
Truly
Yes
Just...yes
😢😢😢😢😢😢😮
The perfect sequel doesn’t exi-
You should totally just make an album or something XD
Ooh. Would LOVE to hear a Rick22228 original album.
Especially with that magical Boogie Woogie on an old saloon piano. ;)
The best part of this, is when Rick says Yeah!! in the B.W. Section and then gets right down to it, making this old piano sing!!!
Holy cow that performance of "you are my sunshine", I've never heard it like that or thought much of the song till now
If this guy dedicated his whole channel to playing old songs on old pianos I’d watch every video immediately
Ohh yeah!! A 2nd part!
True art
talent is not seen often
but it shines here
Unlike most people he didn't spam 50 parts and waited over 8 years to release part 2
I'd totally listen to 50 parts of this!
I found your original saloon video in my recommendations, and was lucky enough to find it just in time for your part 2 to be uploaded 8 years later. Thank you for sharing spreading joy with your wonderful playing.
I love hearing you play the boogie woogie. It's honestly amazing!
I'm 14, and a young piano player, I honestly admire your skill! Thank you for uploading this, I watched the first saloon piano video, and I loved it.
Lady Stardust I’m 11 and I play boogie Woogie and love it so much
im a fetus and i enjoy woodie guthrie
Hey im 14 and I'm trying to learn piano too lmao
Hi, I am 12, and I also love playing jazz, bleus and boogie woogie.
Hey there Lady Star Dust you will never Regret Playing the Upright Piano ,Because it is the Best Piano you will ever play in you life ! ! ! ;-)
Been waiting for this ever since you uploaded the first one. I love the sound!
Indeed

Yee Haw! Finally, another old saloon piano adventure! :)
I found the original video years ago, and it always stuck with me. I'd look it up every few years when it'd pop back in my head, and always got enjoyment out of it.
Then, about a year ago, I decided to actually peak at your entire channel and was pleasantly surprised to find an entire collection of you cranking out some tunes on a wide variety of pianos. I was hooked and subscribed immediately.
So happy to see another upright "saloon sound" video. I just may have to adventure out and get myself one, one of these days.
Thanks for making your videos! - all of them. It certainly brightens my day to see another Rick22228 upload, and I really enjoy the friendliness and music. You're like the youtube equivalent of a musical Mr. Rogers.
Keep on keeping on! :)
Hey Rick. Good to hear you play again!! but, it doesnt sound as tubby or clanky as that old Schiller you had. Also on part 1, I just posted about the 'Saloon" piano I found in Virginia City, Nevada, In the old Silver Dollar Saloon, it is an old 1875 model Story & Clark, I played B.W. and Ragtime on it, and it sounded almost the same as your old Schiller!! The tourists came out of the woodwork all up and down the street, gathered around and sung there hearts out for about almost 2 hours while I played the best sounding music they had ever heard, I had that old S & C rockin out!! At least that is what a lot of them said. They must have bought me a dozen beers, cause I was a bit tipsy, and had to sit and shoot the bull awhile before I could drive, to Austin and home!! Was a really good time, thanks for the inspiration, you are a National Treasure. dont ever quit! music keeps us healthy and young at heart!!
dagnabit...all the fun stuff happens everywhere else
What happened to the video? Your channel is blank.
This house is absolutely beautiful Rick! Your dad was a very smart and talented man that's for sure :) Brilliant video, I'm so happy I've found it
I'm one of the lot of people.
Your father was a really clever man. And I could hear you play the piano 🎹 everyday.
Keep singing, keep playing and wish you good health.
I can't express how happy I was when you started singing.
This gives me an enormous sense of wellbeing.
brilliant Rick half expecting John Wayne to walk in. Keep them coming !
This guy is just living his best life he seems so happy
loving this, just an old fella enjoying life jamming out on an old piano
You can't help but love that saloon sound! Great video sir.
EzPz can't help but question your profile picture!
What a lovely house. Piano's great too, lol.
Such a heartwarming voice❤
It's out of tune, yes... But it still sounds very beautiful! And the saloon songs you play together with the sound of the piano is really good. Beautiful, and you're also singing really good :)
Greetings from Sweden
hur gör man för ostämma skiten då, vill lira boogiewoogie saloon style. ska hämta mitt första piano idag.
@@GalenIRL det finns en svensk boogie woogie / rock n roll pianist här på youtube som också har ett saloon piano. han brukar svara snabbt och detaljerat på såna saker om man mailar han. christopher forsman heter har.
Greetings from North America! 🇺🇸
Love It! Part 3???
Brian M maybe in 8 years :D
@@georgeheld19013 years left...
@@tenplusten1116 lmaooo
The way you play that upward bass movement in sunshine at 5:51 really scratches an itch in my ear! Loved the history and minitour of the house as well.
part two... *uploads after 7 years* ... What a madlad
You are the BEST....thanks for sharing your time and talent!!
Nice big house! The Piano fits in perfectly :D
Love this video
This man is the last of the few true gentlemen. Bless him.
I waited 8 years for this :)
what an absolute legend
honestly this fills me with so much joy you dont even know
I say this in the most endearing way possible, as somebody with nothing but respect for Rick here: hearing these tunes makes me want to break bottles and chairs over heads.
A part 2, that was pretty unexpected. I like how you got that piano fixed up and moved there. The house and the piano go well together, they both have a great history . You playing that piano just makes me smile, I hope you and your family can have a good time with that piano. 😁
Whenever I hear Camptown Race I cant help but think of Blazing Saddles
you have true talent and I'm glad you decide to share it to the world!!
Holy crap! This guy can play AND sing! Wow!
Rick your songs make me happy and really help me with my depression thank you
Hello Rick I know this is an older post, but I have just watched your two videos. I will bet you already know this. This Piano Conover, I will bet was made in the same Factory in Oregon Illinois as your one in part one. The name of that shopping mall is the Conover Factory.
I can really appreciate your restoring old Pianos, my Mother taught Piano all her adult life. When she passed away I had her two Pianos restored, I gave one to my son and I kept the one she bought new I think in 1926, a baby grand Hamilton. It is a wonderful instrument the restorer said it was really a very good one.
Thanks for your posting you put on a really nice performance.
I just love hearing all the old songs my papaw used to sing with me as a little one :) thank you
Your videos make my day man thank you ! One day I will learn to play the piano like yourself
As before, the sound of your wonderful playing along with that wonderful piano has brought a smile to my face. Bravo sir!
I'm amassed that an old time piano could sound so different, what a great old time sound
omg when he started singing i couldnt help but smile :) one day I'm going to get a piano like this!
Great!! I can't wait for 2026 to see part 3
That's awesome to hear your Father built that house by himself & It's kept in the family now for generations (Hopefully) that's how it is in our Family as well!! We the Old Blue Collar workers!! Glad you are still with us Rick! Thanks for sharing.
That does sound good, it has the old Saloon sound but the one you paid $75 for sounds amazing. You'll never top that.
Aaaaa i can't believe that you made a second part, i can't get enough of that signature saloon-esque sounds
What an "airy" sound! Pianos don't sound like that anymore. So vibrant.
Love this guy!
Dear Rick, my wife and I love watching your videos. I really can't quite describe what it is, but your passion for pianos, your style of playing and your wonderfully postitive character makes us grin from ear to ear everytime we see you. Thank you for sharing all this with the world. Stay the way you are and keep doing what you love. Greetings from Germany!
I have been wanting this! Thank you Rick!
I love this UA-cam channel overall!!!! Keep it up Rick!!

Hi Rick. It's YOU , not the piano, so famous. At the very begining you said that a lot of people liked your piano - it may be that we came at the part 1 when looking for something on piano, (mostly I think boogy woogy) but we stay ( I think most of us) here not for the piano but for YOU , for your smile, for your "carpe diem" moment, we are here when we are sad and need boost in live, as children who come back to parents, we are here to charge our battery. If you wrote a book how did you manage to achive this smile in your life (English is not my mother tongue - live or life?;) as nice as in part 1 it would be so famous as books of Seligman's or Ben Shahar's. I never was at USA and have small chance to be there (money and holiday time) , but every time I think what except route 66 should I see I think how far from my route may be your house. I would add some mileages to say HI to you. It (again my opinion) was the main reason we were waiting for the part 2. Not the piano - we love YOU Rick !
Hey, thanks so much for the kind words, Ofdejerski
! Yes, it is nice to know that I do play a role in making my music videos fun and entertaining! That is what it is all about! It makes me happy to know that I helped make someone else happy and put a smile on their faces when they watch my music videos. Thanks again for the kind words, and watching my music videos! Take care and God Bless!!!
Rick
Rick - I love the way you play, it makes me really happy 😅
Your right , that $75 piano sounds like an old saloon piano like on the old TV show Laramie.
Steve Ward , Hesperia Michigan.
The man the myth the legend. This is a gem that deserves to be preserved forever
I dint even started watching it and already give it a like. Wonderfull piano and wonderfull man.
Inspiring to see a house that your dad built from the ground up,us millennial generation have lost the art of trades.im a trades man however not many of us left and we are aging as all do small will be worn out in the coming two decades
Love it!! you're a wonderful player and singer!
*The sequel we all needed.*

For me, the sound of the piano still so beautiful. I love the sound of old pianos too. I really love it.
Hi Rick. Wonderful, just stay as you are. Ihave the same old piano and I like it as much as you do it. Just give more songs to you tube. I'm your fan. Thanks and stay well and happy. Greetings from Switzerland Walter❤❤❤❤
Thank for the comments, Walter! I appreciate it, my friend!
Rick
Your father was a talented man indeed. I could feel the pride in your voice as you spoke of him and the tremendous work he did on the family home. A master craftsman and no mistake. Love you're enthusiasm for the old music and piano. Its infectious...well I've certainly caught the bug and I'm away over here in Belfast N. Ireland! Best wishes to you and yours.
Rick sir, I really hope you understand how admired you are, you have such amazing talent and we all love and respect you! God bless!
Magic fingers my friend. I love the ol sound
What a wonderful gentleman! I'd love to hear more. It makes me move and happy
Good nes grayish ..great ball of fire ..Rick ..love it ..God bless !
Reminds me a lot of my grandma’s upright when I was a child
I loved hearing about your father how he built your sisters house from scratch sounds like a true working man
This reminds me of my grandad keep it up
The absolute epitome of the Old West saloon!! LOVE THIS VIDEO!! Thanks for the tour and the fabulous playing!

Quality over quantity with music

I love this, as well as your first video. I fix up old typewriters. You’re making me want to fix up old pianos now. :) And what a great house built by your dad. So nice it stayed in the family.
I really love your videos. I really enjoy it! Keep it up!!!
Greetings from Brazil.
Please continue to preserve American history. This is beautiful.
Thank you for your contribution to real American History, my dear friend.
I never knew you made a second part intill now.

but when playing the piano... respect
Keep on going Rick! I really enjoy the way you play piano and would love to see you posting monthly or even weekly. Keep up the good work!
God bless your dear parents' souls! And thank you for keeping old pianos alive and sharing your talent with us.
It's incredible that your father built the entire house
Good to see you Mr. Rick, hope you and yours are well. I really enjoy your music.
Keep playing and posting these. Thank you so much!!
That boogie woogie sounds awesome on that old upright!
Thanks for the comments! I like the boogie-woogie on the old uprights too! All the best!
