  • This is nice but played too fast, I believe

  • Probably played TOO fast again ?

  • pm0501, since some think this is too fast (I happen to agree when the roll builds-up toward the end), have you ever experimented with adjusting the tempo knob several times during the roll? About every 20 seconds, adjust it down just slightly; the goal is to get the end of the roll at the same speed as the beginning. I know it is hard on these console type players.

    Thanks for posting this roll. I was going to myself, but you beat me to it :) I'm glad others are getting to hear it now!

  • That is nice but the rendition is TOO fast as It is on theses rolls

    Thank you

  • Are you ebay member botsford88by by any chance ?

    Best

  • No I am not.,

  • No, but I know who it is. I'll tell you in a personal email, please check your inbox.

  • Damn, Clarence Johnson schools us all! Some of the tastiest piano playing of all time!

    Sit down folks, and get a complete course in shoutin'!

    Did you know: famed blues singer

    Lizzie Miles considered Clarence Johnson her favorite accompanist, over all the many other fine pianists she worked with.

  • Sierra is on my list! Do you know if they have "word roll" capibilities?

  • I don't know; Spencer Chase says he does, but that few people were actually interested in new word roll recuts with the words (I guess he just hasn't talked to the right people).

  • Sierra for sure has the ability to do tempo stamping, they did so on the 2 recuts we recently produced. See RelianceMusicRolls on youtube for the performances from these fine recuts.

    We're experimenting with getting word printing capabilities on potential future recuts. If all else fails, get your self a set of moveable type rubber letters, and stamp the lyrics in one word at a time. It may take forever, but the lyrics deserve to be preserved too.

  • P.S., if you are going to get this roll recut, I recommend Bob and Ginny Billings of Sierra Music Rolls. Their rolls are punch-for-punch 100% faithful to how the original roll master would have been.

  • FANTASTIC Clarence Johnson roll! Five stars!

    Have you considered getting this roll recut! Sign me up, I'll buy a copy!

    I love Aggravatin' Papa, and this roll is totally different than composer J. Russel Robinson's roll for QRS (which is a masterpiece). This roll is so good, I think it is equal to that one!

  • Andrew,

    I have an original of this too. Do you know 3 friends that would also be interested in a copy? If I can get pay-pal pre-orders in place, I would consider getting it recut. The recuts would be $15 plus media mail. I can't however fund the project from the start; too much financial risk for a poor college student! :)

    Take care now,

    Erik

  • Sure, let me talk to my friends and get back to you.
