Allen Dale-When I'm 64

[tonaveri]

this beatle song will never be the same. great rendition on the piano....it is more nostalgia sounding..... keep it up!! greetings from oregon.

[intrinsicx]

Some of the best piano playing I've ever seen! bravo! :)

[allendale1962]

@intrinsicx Thanks! I do pretty good for an old fart with severe neuropathy! God is good to me tho!

[lloydfasting]

Hi Allen, it's so nice that you play most of your songs by ear!! How do you chose the key in which you play it? You are a real inspiration to me

[allendale1962]

@lloydfasting The Key is based on what Key was used on the recording. If I sing, I sometimes need to change the key to fit my range. Thanks.

[HorseRiderLass]

Hi Allen Love this tune You are keeping me up late again Lots of late nights since I found you on you tube. I,m addicted to your music, Your number one Aussie fan Joy

[williammiddletonjr]

Allen, your style says you're a happy guy, or at least, playing the piano makes you happy. So bright and so skilled. You really nailed it with this one. All of your stuff takes one to good places.

[allendale1962]

@williammiddletonjr Thanks.

[jayeemace]

What a tallent - What a repertoire - you have made my later years enjoyable beyond description. Thank you from England. John.

[allendale1962]

@jayeemace You're welcome, John.

[geertuss]

really nice song! Maybe you know my uncle: Jan Vayne from Holland. He's really my uncle, it's not a lie. I like every vid of you, and I asked Jan if he would play some numbers of you. Very nice!

[allendale1962]

@geertuss Thank you. I do not know your Uncle, Jan Vayne. Sorry.

[Winterstick549]

Hey there Allen. Brilliant as allways. Have you ever considered playing a Beatles song called 'Obli Di Obli Da'? Its jaunty ragtime feel is right up your alley. Also you may have more fans in England/Europe than you realize, they love this older, traditional american music.

[allendale1962]

@Winterstick549 Thanks. I will try and post Obli -di Obli Da soon!

[TheShining1976]

I love the changes from the chorus very dark and ominious sounding!

[allendale1962]

@TheShining1976 Thanks.

[cowsnmonkees]

i'm doing a cover with bass and clarinets and all with me on the piano/lyrics (i'm 13) doing the actual thing. think when i post it on youtube you could say.... promote it? that would be the coolest thing evar.

allen i have to ask, but is that piano expensive?

[allendale1962]

Len paid around 1,000 dollars for it , I believe.

[maddog5461]

Chuck, it is my piano, I got it on E-Bay in 2002 for 700.00, but had to rent a U-hurl, and go about 300 miles one way to pick it up, at the time it would have sold in a music store for around 1500.00, all in all I have about 1,000.00 in it, u-hurl and all. Later Len P
