I'm a fan of that other Austin High guy, Jimmy McPartland! Thanks, niece, for reminding us how great all those guys were.

@naquagesicnoon Thanks for watching. Are you related through Jimmy's brother?

[naquagesicnoon]

@bsgs98 yes I am. I'm his grand daughter.

[naquagesicnoon]

That man could tickle the ivory!

[bsgs98]

@UkesterBrown He wasn't a large man but it's said that his hands could span 12 notes on the keyboard!

Great piece of music, great vid. Thanks !

[bsgs98]

@Pianosyncrazy There's a piano roll by Bob Zurke doing this tune. I have it as a midi file.

[Pianosyncrazy]

@bsgs98 Wow.. would love it. I have a roll of a tune called Washington County Breakdown, by Thomas Roberts. Ever heard of such ?

[bsgs98]

@Pianosyncrazy Never heard of it, but there is an Ellington tune called "Washington Wobble" which has some great piano!

[Pianosyncrazy]

@bsgs98 Got the Washington "Waddle" on my channel, but not the "Wobble", I think they are doing a litle of both right now. LOL
