Oh wow! What a talented young man!
Thank you Jason you are a wonderful talent. I hope Avery follows in your foot steps. You sound just like your grandfather. I love him. God bless you and your family.
Jason. You play your Grandad's music so wonderfully. I am really enjoying this. Last Date brought me here. It is so great to sit here and listen to Floyd Cramer's music that you play so beautifully on such a beautiful piano.
You play so wonderfully, it brings back so many memories, Thank you so much !
Oh, what a cute, sweet, talented entertainer he is. Good job, Avery. 💙
That’s amazing at such a young age and Jason you have the same timing as your grand dad
Keep this beautiful music alive to the next generation ..Amen

Great! Thank you for playing this wonderful music from your gifted grandfather. I enjoy it very much!
Greetings from Germany.
I am loving listening to you. Great songs from my childhood. I loved Floyd’s style of playing. You are so talented in your own rite. Good luck 👍🏻🍀 in your career.
Thank you very much sharing your musical gift and back story for each song!
I have always loved Floyd Cramer's music and now yours
Hi dear how are you doing over there
Only 298 thumbs up? Have people lost their taste for great music? Has the world gone off the rails? This man has more talent in his little finger than most musicians have in their entire body!! I was born in the ‘50s, raised on Floyd Cramer and Chet Atkins!😎
Great job on all these tunes!! Slip note, often wondered what Floyd called that signature technique.
He deffenetly inherited the talent of Floyd Kramer!!
Yes! Agree 258%
So we're we! We listen and talk about these talented musicians each day. And now enjoy listening to Jason and his family. xx 🙋❤️🎶😘🙏
It's wonderful to see Mr. Kramer and Mr. Atkins' grandkids jamming together.
I've known this song, well bits of it since I was a kid. I'm a 1958 baby. I only just found it & now you, his grandson do it live. A beautiful piece. Thankyou.
Thank you so much Jason for sharing your gift with us♥️
My favorite is the duet at Christmas when you played with your grandad . I love to watch the look on his face he is so proud you Jason with very good reason. I love your playing so much. God bless you and family
Last Date was written when I was around 15 and it has always been my most favorite piece of music. I am 77 now and I have just recently found you on UA-cam. I love your Grandad’s music and now I am also loving yours. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Absolutely, The Best! Awesome, always loved your Granddad’s music and am positive, he would love you honoring him.
Yeah just like father like son. So dear how are you doing over there?
Absolutely one of my very favorites!
Last date was one of the songs that my husband wanted played at his funeral he loved Floyd Cramer especially the song last date. So thank you Jason for these beautiful music that your grandfather lead you to please keep on playing you are wonderful
❤Such beautiful music.
Damn! Best soothing memories I have of listening to my parents playing the record of Floyd Cramer on Saturday evenings while I sat on the stairs, and they thought we were all asleep... I'm 63 and I miss them both... bless them.
Thank you for playing Last Date it brings back so many memories of my husband and me holding on to each other dancing to this song so many times .He is not here now I miss him so much .But I know we will dance again Some day and it will be to Last Date .Thank you Jason ❤️
Nice job Jason! I remember listening to your Grand dad when I was a kid growing up in Ohio. I had a couple of his records, and at the time I was taking organ lessons. Still wish that I could play piano! All of the Legacy songs that you played, were all familiar to me. Several months ago, I was listening to the Billy Joel channel on XM radio, and he mentioned your Grand dad as an early influence of his musical style. I thought that was pretty cool. Anyhow, you have perfected his style, and good on ya. It was a real pleasure listening to your now officially named show. Good luck to you, from Winnipeg, Canada. God Bless.
I think Patsy was the greatest female country singer that ever lived, loved her.
Avery is adorable! Great parents bringing him up right!
Just Beautiful. I use to love hearing your Grandpa. So glad to catch up with you! Blessings to you.
Hey dear how are you doing over there ?
My mom just passed but she could play a portion of it but truly loved it it was also loved by her dad.
My grandfather once beat me within an inch of my life after I dared to play one of his original songs, he told me "Anil, you will never be as great as your grandfather, who is me'' and then as he repeatedly beat me, he reminded me to whom I owed not only my repetoir but also my technique, and he told me "Anil, if you ever dare to create a fame and fortune for yourself based upon my accomplishments, I shall haunt you eternally, and your children and children's children shall never rest." So then I decided to become a confectionery baker of sweet breads. That ended up not working out and now I work for the local phone company. My grandfather would have hated it, but I'm ok with creating my own legacy and not ashamed about how shitty it is.
How sad I am for you. Grandfather's as much as anyone else can make or break a child's hopes and dreams. Good for you to do your own thing. Bless you. 🌹
Nothing sh**ty about doing your own thing. Character is a more important legacy than anything.
God bless you in what ever you choose to do! Make yourself proud!
Your grandfather was a pitiful human being.
Hey! Stop it! You get back in there and play the music you love! Your grandfather made a mistake. And wherever he is right now he KNOWS it. So forgive him and move on. Life's too short to live it "shitty."
I like so mutch the music!!!!!!!!
We remember Floyd Cramer from early in our marriage. We have been married 54 years now and are enjoying your piano playing. It brings back good memories and I thank you for continuing his legacy. It's easy clean listening 🎶
My wife is a neice to Boots Randolph, which played music with your Grandpa. You sound just like him, its like your Geandpa is playing through your music!!! You are awsome!!! Brings back memories
😅wonderful 😊
I am soooooo thankful you are keeping this legacy going. You’ll have to teach your grandson someday so it doesn’t get lost ever. I love this style of playing.
Just no earthly words to say how much your music means to me...it is out of this world....bless you and little Avery what a wonderful gift you are to us....
'I remember you and your Granddad.
He often spoke of his Grandchildren and he was very proud of all of you.
And you're making him proud by keeping his music a live. You sound just like him. Thank you.
What a beautiful pianist.Could listen to him all day. Piano is the greatest. My mum played piano l couldnt pick it up .🎹
I love your music. Thank you for keeping your grandfather’s music alive
Great song selections. You play my kind of music. I wish you would publish these legacy songs in book with CD. I would buy it.
Truly amazing! You definitely did your grandfather proud! Avery was adorable!
Jason your grandfather’s music will always be remembered he was a great pianist but his music was beautiful then and it still is
Welcome to my world I look forward to playing
Such beautiful soothing music! It brings back such beautiful memories. I see another generation coming along with your little boy. That would be absolutely great! We need this music so much right now. My best to you and your family.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
Hi dear how are you doing over there ?
Very good Avery well done, youll the next cramer.
This brings back so many memories
Hi Kimberly how are you doing over there? Greetings from 🇱🇷...
Hi dear how are you doing over there m
Jason, that sounded just like your Grandad. I loved his unique sound. I wish you his success.
I love your sweet personality and your beautiful music, sir.
Hey dear how are you doing over there ?
This melody reaches deep into your soul and digs out the most melancholy moments of happiness and sorrow and blends them together to reflect heartfelt emotions of the human spirit and hope for us all.
Wow Jason. Your playing these songs is more beautiful than the originals.
You are a blessing Great Sound Thanks for the Concerts
Floyd Cramer’s contributions to the music industry will forever live on. Thank you so much Jason for keeping his legacy alive. Great job Avery. Your grandfather would be so proud of you. Loved all of His music.❤❤ I am still a fan of Floyd Cramer’s music 😊😊😊 Linda
I feel so gifted that I have found Jason Coleman because his grandfather's slip-finger, tight-chording sound is one I have loved for a good 60 years starting with Floyd Cramer! Jason has got it; I close my eyes and I hear Floyd. Voila! LOVE!
This song is one of my first memories in life.
Hey how dear how are you doing over there
@@ernestwelon21 I'm well! Thank you,K
@@keithdavis82 Good so tell me were are you from?
He plays with such ease!
You play as lovely as your granddad.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Jason, Here’s a bit of a long story but I’d like to share it with you in the hopes that it brings you added confirmation that your work is appreciated not just by listeners but also those of us who would like to emulate the style-even those of us outside of the tradition of Country & Western.
I’ve been playing piano all my life - mostly jazz standards, show tunes from my Dad, a self-taught pianist born in ‘26, now no longer with us. Taught by my Dad, I read almost everything as a lead sheet, improvised. He always said to me, “Never make a great song into a dirge”.
When a friend of mine, whose Mum just died, told me her father is now in a home and loves the older Country & Western music, I found a copy of the Reader’s Digest Family Songbook online so that I could play for him and the other folks at his home. Well, these are all beloved songs but I made them all sound like dirges! Oh no! This is what eventually led me to your Grandad and you; I needed to find a way to play these great songs authentically but I didn’t know where to look.
Playing through the book, I came across “My Last Dance (With You)”. Right away, I recognized the ascending line at the end of the A section. I’d found it! The musical magic that gives this tune its character-what makes it not a dirge! It’s the embellished downbeats!
I was sure I had heard this song with my Dad, listening to the Lawrence Welk Show! I even found that clip on UA-cam! It’s your Grandad playing his instrumental version. Wonderful!
Though a lofty goal, I’m setting out to absorb your Grandad’s style. The cadences and embellished rhythms are very different from what I’m used to playing but, thanks to UA-cam, your Grandad’s recording and you, maybe I can stop making these great songs into dirges - for my friend’s Dad and sort of for my Dad, too.
This is my long way of saying thanks for carrying on such an important style of music. I’m thrilled to have found your channel. All the best.
From Jay K. 🇨🇦
Absolutely love your video ,just really great piano music .love all the goldies, don't hear a lot of great music these days. I grew up dancing to your granddads "on the rebound" & of course last date my absolute favorite. There's days i just want to relax to your intramemtals . No words needed because I know all the songs. Thanks for the music
Oh my gosh! So glad I found this. I was born in '62 and remember his unmistakable sound. So soothing and beautiful. I wish I could play like that!
Beautiful playing Jason. Avery sounded great too!
My wife and I first heard you at the CAAS convention several years ago. You blew us away. I would have sworn Floyd himself was playing. You definitely inherited his talented hands.
Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
I play this music all the time. Thank you for playing in your living room for all of us to enjoy. Love that little boy of yours. You are a very special dad.
So beautiful playing Patsy Clines song Crazy

I just found this video. I was listening to Floyd Cramer just yesterday!!!
Hi dear Sharon how are you doing over there?
My Dad got me interested in Floyd Crammer when I was 15 I am now 64 and I still love his music. Jason you play just like your grandad ! You are a natural !
Last date is my favorite and brings tears to my eyes. Danced with my woman this morning to this
Aww jason, YOUR son is way to PRECIOUS, ADORABLE, thank you AVERY, AWESOME job. BEAUTIFUL LITTLE ONE. 😊💖❤😁
Hey dear how are you doing over there ?
I listened right through this, it was so good and you were awesome, your grandad would be so proud. Bless you.
Love it! Thank you for the memories!
The Gift given to your grandfather, now rest upon you. Use it wisely, and it will serve you well.
Awesome job Jason. That was a rather cute heart lifting duet with your boy Avery I really enjoy your playig just as I enjoyed your grandfather's for mostb all my life to date years. I was born in October of 1957 so by the time his hit song last date rolled out n 1960 I was a three year old boy and I remember I loved them old songs and Last date was my number 1 favorite song back then when I was three and then when I was about 6 yrs old I was really twirling and boogieying to last date. 60 years have passed and I am 63 now Jason and that song Last Date logged in my hearr and soul and it still anchors that top spot as my #1 favorite song of all time!! In fact I told my mom one time I loved thst song so much I vowed I was going to learn to play it I play guitar and enjoy that and also I love singing. I've sang in a few choirs including church choir so i enjoy singing the Old classic hymns but the oldies you are playing. Nice job on the Patsy Cline piano piece it sound quite lovely. I am shopping for a keyboard now specifically so I can learn to play Last Date before i die via a tuto4ial if i can find one. I Enjoyed your show very much. keep up the good work!!
Thank You for keeping your Grandfather's wonderful, beautiful music going! Also, Thank You for bringing back such wonderful memories! Tonight, my heart is full. J.D. in SW Louisiana.
Beautiful! So wonderful to see great talent recycled in the family, to be enjoyed by future generations.
I am also at an age that I remember when Last Date was released and I loved it then and still do today. Your version is just as beautiful and I`m so glad I found this on You Tube.
Great to see and hear that you’re keeping your grandads wonderful music alive ! 😊🎶
Awesome All the Way ❤💯
This CONCERT has BROUGHT ALOT of BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES. Best CONCERT JASON you brought the house down. AWESOME 😊😊
There is no other song more beautiful than “Last Date”. Your grandad was amazing at the piano and you have definitely inherited his talent.
I appreciate your skill and the way you pay homage to your Granddad. Your beautiful little son sitting next to you doesn’t hurt the heart either! Thanks!
Brings back great memories, Jason. I loved learning and playing Last Date in my mid teens.
Love this thank you so much for posting
very talented - would make your granddad proud
Your little son is Magic.
Im listening to this again!
I’ve never heard of Jason Coleman until now he actually sounds pretty good almost as good as his granddaddy I’m sure he’s the one who taught him how to play piano
Avery stole the show. AWESOME JOB. 💖😁

❤THANK YOU.
Jason my mom had that record album of Skeeter Davis and a record album of your granddads and I loved listening to them so much
Beautiful!!! Got me hooked! So happy to hear & see that Jason shares his blessings with all of us of classic country. Also "Last Date" a family favorite.
