I have been playing the piano for quite a while and I can tell you I've never heard anyone play the piano so perfectly, at perfect synchronization with the tempo, no mistakes and most of all, the legato as someone has already said. Keep on the awesomeness. :D
You play the way I play in my daydreams. Walking out through the lobby after an office Christmas party, when someone spots a baby grand..."Hey, I'll have a go at it!" I suavely walk over, sit down and crack my knuckles, and start to play what you just played to everyone's astonishment. Impeccable timing and feel Dickie. ★★★★★
It's so nice to hear a blues player that is truly a blues player. The mind of jazz. The improv, the creativity, the freedom of expression. You sure ain't no parrot. All somebody has to do is listen to tell you've mastered it. Only the parrot mentality will contend with you. I never heard you before. Am sure those in the industry have a great respect for you. This is the kind of piano playing I love to listen to.
you've got a point mister! :) please keep on playing and posting videos like this on youtube.. :) you have that talent to inspire the people around you! Thank you for sharing your music with us!
There are some really good players on youtube - I'd put you as the best I've yet heard, perfect legato, lyrical technique, fast flowing ideas using chromatic, blues, diminished runs delivered with a rubato type timing that really is quite rare because it's hard to make it sound natural and uncontrived, but yours is smooth as silk - nothing equivocal about it, this is a masterclass of blues piano -
Good job!!!!! I enjoyed it. finally someone on YouYube playing the blues beyond 3 chord- boogie woogie blandness. Everyone else just plays real fast pentatonic scales without emotion banging away like a typewriter. You put in real chords and feel and improvised chromatically.
It's very very cool song. -> J'adore comment tu joues ! Un peut de jazz dans le blues c'est super joli. Et les riffs de blues sont super bien travaillé... enfin j'adore vraiment continue !
Many,many thanks ! It is so inspiring to me.So I am starting something that I thought I would never do again : Practising !!! As a singer I became lazy , thinking it would be enough to do the chords while singing ballades.Thanks again, Michael
I wish I was that good! I play piano and am trying to learn blues. I just learned some blues scales but that doesn't help much. I practice almost every day. I hope to be able to play like you someday!
nice - thanks - i just sung with you an nice impression- " I dont want you to take on , I just want you to wake up - cause we sleep to much in our own ....baby listen to meeeee , just listen and be freeeeeeeee ! " I have a inner urge to sing Blues , but have no Band :-( Greetings from Mexico
Thanks for that high praise! It's interesting to hear what people from all over have to say about my playing. I try to keep at it, with fresh ideas and new approaches to old material. I appreciate the encouragement.
There are pianists and there are pianists. Your talent is a heavenly gift. Thanks for sharing!

My big brother. Wish we lived closer so I could listen in person like the old days!
Thank god for someone who still knows what true blues is all about, and hasn't just read about the scales online. You've got soul.
Not only are you gifted, but you really put an emotional feeling into your playing that's undeniable. Thanks for posting!

Wow a master blues pianist with good grammar... now I've seen everything! You rock!

I have to add, from one pianist to another, you have more than earned the title of Master Pianist. Let's see those that doubt play to this standard.
Def a masterpiece of bluesmanship. BRAVO!!!
WOW! This guy really is a master. I got goosebumps listening to him.
He is beyond a master! Unbelievable playing...
oh i have to live 200 years to start playing like you. I have no words to say. I wish, could be possible to be my teacher !!! Greetings form Greece :)
Wow, first class jazz blues player. Simply wonderful, great!
If I could play like this I'd never leave the house. Great sound, man.
I play this tune for students when I want to illustrate words like exceptional and flawless. Thank you, GM, Bangkok-Thailand
You've got a lot of soul and scwhangg unlike so many of the speedsters out there
Nice!
Now this is an ole upright. My first piano was an upright. I was 5. Was the pianist at age 10 in our Pentecostal church in Amarillo Tx
move my soul now my pocketbook. keep playing baby I really loved it.
your fingers have more soul than a Louisiana gospel singer...post more videos man your the man!!!!!
