  • Hi Tommy

    I only came across your videos today.I can tell you it took me back quite a few years too my younger days. I've never seen it plyed or heard it played in such style,its a pleasure to sit here and watch a great musician. Thanks a bundle.

  • You sir, are soo awesome!

  • Hello Tommy. I´ve noticed you always playing on these "new stuff"

    It would be amazing to see what you could do with an old household piano.

    Maybe to inspire us inactive players...

  • What an individual can dislike that wonderful piece of Musik ?¿

    Great Style in all Videos i have seen. Pleeeease go on like that !

    Greetings

  • You're so gifted, Tommy. I love listening to your music. Keep going because you certainly deserve to be heard by all. :D Blessings to you and yours

  • Mi querido amigo, permitame felicitarle, toca ud. bellisimo, este ud. seguro que lo seguire en todos lo videos que coloque. Gracias, por compartir su talento con el mundo.

  • It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing -- of which commodity you have bucket loads, by the way Tommy. You inspire me to plan an upgrade to a credible 88 note keyboard and get practising!

  • Je to úžasné!!! Nejen sama skladba, ale podání, vlastní invence, technika..nemám slov .Díky moc\!

  • Rap n Soda

  • Tommy...you truly an inspiration. I am an ear player and started taking lessons at age 81...from an ear player. I have always loved music and now I am doing what I had always wanted to do...I had a Yamaha digital keyboard...but, now I play on a Roland Atelier AT900C...a fantastic instrument...I take lessons on the AT900, but, at home I have an old Technics SX F5...In my teens, Boogie was the "thing"...and, still is to me! You are fantastic and I can tell you really love the keyboard and music..

  • Tommy....stupendous excellence...you engender benign envy in those of us who love music but, have no ability to play.

  • So awesome....

  • Beautiful music and a fantastic arrangement.................

  • I almost feel like quiting after I hear you play . So good man, instead I 'll let it inspire me Thanks

  • wow!!!!!!!

  • Wow....no words can describe how great this is....what a God given gift you have!! xoxo

  • Ok. Now Peg o' My HEart and Hong Kong Blues?Hey! I Have one I have on 78 called The Hummeres(Spelling) Boogie!Bet You would Kick That tunes ass!

  • My Dear Mother GOD rest her Soul, a appreciator of music always taught me either one feels the music or one is mechanical...

    You SIR are a wonderful tribute of talent to the art of music...

    You feel the notes, all the best and many thanks for sharing with all...

  • Tommy you are a proper character and you are an inspiration to alot of people and you obviously have so much fun in what you do so I say fair play to you and much much respect, true top man and true top pianist/keyboardist....all the best from me and mine in Gobowen UK....

  • he is kinda cute^^

    

  • Do you ever come to Pennsylvania!?

  • You just uplifted my day! Wonderful and fun!

    Thank you!

  • Stay The Way You Are

  • That was the coolest Gershwin I EVER heard!

  • ha ha wow this is just fantastic mr johnson...absolutely good for the ear and the soul..thanks for uploading this.

  • How come you are not on TV? Patricia from Connecticut

  • So do you come as far as Memphis for concerts?  Love the style and feeling in the playing!

  • @beginnerbeader

    If you have a gig for me I will be glad to go to Memphis. I do shows all over the country.

  • What an absolute joy to listen to.

  • I like very much what you play on the piano.....gershwin and boogie...very good tommy....

  • Dizer que ficou lindo perfeito OTIMO e dizer POUCOOOOOOOOOOO 6 estrelas pra vc.

  • Genial!

  • Back on page 7 in the comments section, idahodad1 says that, "you get good comments because you deserve good comments", and he is right. Thanks for all the wonderful postings! YouTube proves you don't have to be a MegaStar to be a Megaperson like you.

  • Fantastic! Never stop, please!

  • Gerschwin George would be proud of such a rhapsody

  • I do not know English very well so there may be errors because I use a computer translator. Such sincerely apologize

  • Awesome mix, I think that George would be proud of Gerschwin such rhapsodies

  • So much finesse.

  • some envious fool made a dumb comment about your "posture".

    I think your posture and movements reflect a passion and uniqueness. I've seen some great pianists whose style reminded me of rigormortis slightly animated.

    Beautiful work!

  • I have a player piano and I have a piano roll that Liberace did. The first 40 bars or so are very similar to his, after that I like your rendition much more! Thanks Tommy :)

  • SPLENDID SPLENDID

  • You have the Gift, man! Believe me: YOU HAVE THE GIFT!

    George Gershwin would be proud of you. From the bottom of my heart, thanks for being part of this world!!

  • @ThePutipu .......very lovely, truthful words....

  • Tommy, you the Man!

  • I like yours better then mine

  • Absolutely stupendous!

    You are a master of your art, enjoyable to listen to and to watch.

    You have a tremedous gift and you do not seem to flaunt it, rather I think, you embrace it and enjoy it yourself.

    God bless,

    Mike (Republic of Ireland)

  • Killer man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    god has truly blessed you, hope you make a trillion dollars, you are truly a nice guy, humble, and one helluva piano artist.

You look like my ten years piano teacher Erwin Seger hehe and wow your hair is getting so long and beaitiful too. Noone could play *Rapsody* better, thanks! made my day!!

  • I have a small Yamaha keyborad that i play songs on by ear..im far from a pro. I wish i would play like you but im a cheater..i play the auto chording thing..i could never multifinger chord..and its mostly one finger with the melody too.
