Does anyone know where I can go to buy a copy of this version of In the mood? I don't know what exactly I'm looking for and the sites I've looked at don;t provide page samples and such
I wish that I had this kind of piano (the one that plays by itself). It is so cool. Where did you get that?
Also gives me memories from when I was a little kid in the 1990s when I lived in California, when I frequently went to this pizzeria called 'Klondike Pizza' in Santa Maria, California, where there was a piano that played by itself if you put in a quarter for each song.
just a suggestion id say there are a few people who did this piano roll-either joe garland,george gershwin, jerry 'roll' morton or frank milne. remember these are all just suggestions so corret me if iam wrong
I'm not exactly sure who did the version in this video (Walter Erickson on Play-Rite maybe [?]---can you let me know for sure, nealien?). But the version I own is played by J. Lawrence Cook (QRS 7118).
Shangas you are wrong about him being in the army he was not a major until 1942 which means he was not in the air force then. Also it was performed WAAY before 1940 try more like 1929
I play In The Mood with two hands. What you need to know is that the white thing in the middle there, is a pianola roll. They have little cuts in them, which match up with notes. The only way those cuts get there, is if someone puts them there by playing the piece.
you just name one of the ways rolls where made. another way was right from sheet music, and often loads of notes where added, making it impossible to play by hand. Whether this is a hand-played or arranged roll I don't know.
I LIKE IT! :D

2. HE RECORDED IT IN 1940, you jackass. I know when he started performing. I'm talking about the date of recording.

That can't be played by one person....you need at least 8 fingers in the treble and 4 on the bass, so unless he's got a 3rd hand...

To think someone actually played that with two hands...what skill.

i think its impossible to play with two hands.. try counting how many are pressed down at one time.. and how far apart.
