Awesome young man

Remember 1957-58 – Jerry Lee Lewis? This guy does a repeat........Enjoy!
Subject: 16 year old walks into a hardware store in Ohio....shakes em up :
This kid is GOOD!

Many of us were in high school in the late 50's and will remember when Jerry Lee Lewis hit the charts in 1957-58 with "Whole Lot of Shakin' Going On" and "Great Balls of Fire." He faded away for a while after marrying his cousin. But when he played the piano, he slammed the keys with both hands, occasionally running his fingers down the entire length of the keyboard, then played with only a couple of fingers as he almost whispered, "Easy now...." only to come back to full power on the keys. With all of that said, this kid, who allegedly walked into a hardware and sat down to an old piano, has Jerry Lee in his blood. Enjoy. It's less than three minutes from start to finish, and he's dynamite!

He is really good. In the link you posted he did not seem as polished as in the one I found on you tube. His movements are smoother in this video. I am unaware of who he is. So I do not know. Has he created a style of his own yet? His playing is impressive and appears to be from the heart. wine

Hi Happy,

This kid is very talented. I suspect he will do well in the music world. Other than Jerry Lee Lewis, I have never seen anyone play the piano like this kid!
That is why I had asked about him having his own style. There have been many great piano players who have the right to be called great because they have developed their own styles of playing. He plays like Jerry Lee because he is playing in Jerry's style. I would love to see this young mans style. And if he has not his own style he needs to find it for he will be awesome. You can see the passion. The happiness of playing written all over him. I will not bore you tho I do get carried away if it is a subject I have passion about. laugh I have had piano lessons as a child and only wished I could play like him. professor But my fingers can walk the key board. Thank you for posting him. I really do think he is awesome rose
You are right. He needs to develop his own style...but he is entertaining!
