I'm indebted to you, Kid, for bringing this guy to my attention. He's what-I-call a true artist and a formidable virtuoso on his instrument.
Even though my main interest in music involves the eight-hundred-year classical tradition that began in The Church, I also enjoy a lot of Jazz, and some of the better stuff from the world of Musical Comedy, I REALLY enjoy listening to TOMMY.
It doesn't matter WHAT he plays, it's the WAY he does it thats so appealing.
FT, PS, Enjoy exploring Tommy youtubes. There are some complete concerts there and other things that had come out on DVD, ie. Center Stage is a collection of live performances. Anyway I think you'd enjoy most of what you find and if he's in your area, a really wonderful live show. Plays for a couple of hours.
Thanks for all the references. YouTube is one of the greatest friends I've ever met. Incredible amount of magnificent stuff available and all free of charge. INCREDIBLE! One of the few things I like about "modern" life.

FT, You're quite welcome. I feel he is the best player in the world. He puts a lot of feeling and experience into the songs.
