Excellent stuff Ralph. That's real entertainment to just listen to a real master just doin his thang. Don't ever hesitate to post something like this. A ton of fun. I loved the boogie woogie stuff.

As someone who would like to learn to play the piano, this is discouraging

Man that was simply fantastic. I just cannot and never have been able to just sit down and compose something that quickly. I have to hammer stuff out. What a great listen.

I am truly impressed

This'll sound like I'm kissing your ass, but so be it.

YOU RULE!!!!!!

Definitely heard the "doc" influence in here, lol, but this made more sense to me.

You really are a pretty rare talent, my crack-headed maestro. It's like 88 keys just aren't enough, eh?

(I almost pissed myself on the "nay-nee nay-nee boo boo" part; the first one)

Starting at @6:30 - you should make a tune out of that...it's not all discordant and stuff, so I know I suck, and it may already be a famous piece of music or something, but I really liked that slice a lot. (you probably hate comparisons to pop players that don't have 1/10th of your skillz, but I always loved "Songs From The Attic," and parts of this gave me the same live vibe. I'll shut up, now.

What a fucking great post!

Naaahhhh! YOU RULE DUDE!!!!! Your shit is so fucking well done it humbles me................& It's your secondary career........Damn! you are one talented individual!!!!!!

Get the Fuck outta the cave & do your music man...........I've checked out all of your MANGO page ......................and DAMN, you are........the one & only .......".CHRISHARRISSSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!"
( ADD MEGAVERB AND HBO FIGHT COMMENTARY VOCAL ARTICULATION to the previous quote , & I works bigtime

( know what???? If you SUCKED, I'd tell you !!!!!!but......ya don't!!

BTW: did anyone catch my homeboy, Mickey Ward, on HBO SAT nite????? Lowell MA)
Man , What a slugfest.....When I was in the "gloves"', I trained w/ his ring coach' Dickie Eckland who kicked my ass on several occasions! Shit , I'm sooooooo gladI opted for music!!!!!

Did I mention that I love you? ( In the manly way of course)
You are one of the first cats to ever respond to my initial post here and tell me what I was fucking-up as far as posting the proper website and URL..I will never forget your kindness ................some people are just nice, other people suck, then there are some that are pure "gems'. You , my friend are of the latter, & I would do anything for you!

THANK YOU KRAMER,( for being Kramer!)

Okay, I'm not gonna DL the whole 9M... but it streamed okay for me. <bad french accent> Vry vry niiiiiice </accent>

You do any Mendelssohn? I've always loved Andante & Rondo Capriccioso, and it sounds like you could do a nice interpretation. Or Souvenirs d'Andalousie by Gottschalk.

Nice improv, loved it.
