Hey Allen, I'm a faily well known regional musician in the south-east, my band and I tour the region often, I do my little version of a radio show on facebook every few days, and I am going to be deicating a whole show to you brother! I'll let you know when!

[nikflagstar]

@nikflagstar *fairly

[allendale1962]

Thanks, Joy. I hope that not ALL my songs make you cry. MOST are meant to make ya happy! Hugz.

[HorseRiderLass]

Hi Allen I love all of Patsy Cline,s songs. You play the tune beautifully, thank you for sharing your great talent with us If I ever am able to go to America I would love to watch you play, you would probably have to put up with me crying, your music moves me so much, I often cry when I watch you play. Your Aussie fan Joy

[tess3850]

...I never tire of listening to my playlist of your songs...and I could sit for hours ( and I HAVE!) and watch your videos...heartfelt thanks for sharing your talent...!

[popleycrew]

Excellent playing!

I like this version that you play and also play it with no sheet music!

[allendale1962]

@popleycrew Thanks!

[forrest51]

You really do that song justice. "Crazy" is a beautiful song to begin with - and hearing you play it on the piano is just awsome! That piano has a very nice rich sound to it, especially when you roll the low notes. I have to listen to that video at least a couple of times when I"m on the internet.

[allendale1962]

@forrest51 Thanks!

[Crazy4Dolly]

I love your videos so much !! this is amazing and i am now going to learn it. Could you do Back in Babys Arms by Patsy or Coat Of Many Colours by Dolly ? I am a huge fan of both :D

[allendale1962]

@Crazy4Dolly Thanks. I will try to post Back in Baby's arms someday. I don't know coat of many Colors very well yet.

[lucasmollet]

Oh my god, my favorite song by Patsy Cline, and you just made the music sound like the best I have ever heard anybody play that song, other than Floyd Crammer himself.

[allendale1962]

@lucasmollet thanks.

[MaltShopOldiesBoy]

Allen Dale Is the best there is he sound have a Record Contract there would be alot people that would buy this wonder piano roll music.

[tellmeitsnottaken]

This song was actually written by Willie Nelson. ;)

[allendale1962]

Yep.

[tess3850]

...can't get enough of your music...it's very moving...would you consider doing another hymn called "On Eagles Wings"...I think your rendition of it would be better than any I've seen on YouTube..and thank you again for the pleasure!

[allendale1962]

Sorry, I don't know Eagle's Wings.

[mudog35]

wow...that was so good! excellent!

[allendale1962]

thanks

[papesta]

Simply true happiness. Thank you very much from Switzerland.

In french: Merci beaucoup pour ce moment de bonheur

[allendale1962]

Thanks you, Switzerland!

[frbjoern]

Allen! I am also your fan. That was a beautiful rendition of "Crazy" I am hoping that maybe one day you will play that soul stirring Gospel melody: "The Meeting in the Air" I love to listen to you playing the piano. I agree with "long4mcleod79" You are indeed a YouTube Star. So in my native language let me say : Danke schön und Gott segne Dich!

[allendale1962]

Dane shon !!!

[long4mcleod79]

If Patsy Cline were alive, I'm certain she would love for you to be her pianist. I'm amazed that some other performer hasn't already snapped you up to play for them on tour. You are better than most of those who accompany singers anyway. And you are a YouTube star. I'm always searching for your latest entree.

[allendale1962]

Thanks for being a fan!

[MrSirJet]

I am sure Patsy Cline would love your rendition.

[allendale1962]

Thank you.

[rockingloryify]

the song reminds me of my brother who passed away . -his favorite song-- you played it very well-- you make people happy by watching your video --it 's a therapy --thank you allen you make my day.

[allendale1962]

You're Welcome.

[josie449]

[allendale1962]

Thanks

[alkazoo]

cheers from argentina

[allendale1962]

Thank you.

[ervs23]

HELLO!!! Can you play The Last Waltz?

it's one of my favorite oldies... ;-)

[allendale1962]

I take it that this a Tom Jones song? If so, I am rusty on it but will try and polish it up and post soon.

[JonathanRay2009]

I'm CRAZY over your work!

[allendale1962]

Thank you.

[neon854]

It's very cool that you play jazz, too, and not just ragtime... Though, I love ragtime! :)

[allendale1962]

thanks

[dragy781]

I love your music Alan and I am Fascinated by your brilliant left hand.

Pete from the UK

[allendale1962]

Thanks, Pete.

[chilidogtx]

ok, dammit, I love rags but this one is great. if you ever get to denton, texas, make my ppaino sound like that (i just bought an old baldwin grand). you remind me of a pianist in Dallas named Jerry Hit.... he is a hoot

[mamilindamami]

Bravo!!! I love Patsy Cline songs!!!

[allendale1962]

thanks!!

[wildnites558]

Excellent!! Loved the way you voiced those chords. Nice accurate stride piano style -- a forgotten art. Did you learn that from sheet music or is that your own arrangement?

[allendale1962]

thanks. This is my own arrangement. I play by ear.

[spitgalore]

Another nice song, thanks.

[allendale1962]

Thanks

[Michael91050]

Nice to hear you play again! I have missed you.

[allendale1962]

Thank you kindly!

[spazmoliffer]

hey

that is AWESOME!!! i do many concerts a homes for veterans and i was wondering if anyone knew where i could get free instrumental usic likethat that i could play in the background??

[allendale1962]

Try Barnes and Nobel. They carry scads of karioke discs.

[grmillssr]

Allen, Your music does so much and thrills us to death.  God Bless you!!!!! Keep on keeping on. Need CD's of your music---advise. Fran&George

[allendale1962]

thanks, but I currently have no CD's for sale.

[TopherJC4]

You play everything always so perfectly and have the song down backwards and forwards....totally amazing! I need to come take some lessons!!!!!

[allendale1962]

Thanks!

[hotsickle]

I think we're all "crazy" about you!!I'd love to hear you play a grand piano. Actually, that little spinet you play has quite a nice tone. What make of piano is it?

[allendale1962]

Thanks! The piano is the property of my friend Lenard P. it is a Baldwin. I have about 5 vids which feature me at my KOHLER piano at my Apt.

[W8NSVARRL]

No one could that one any better! Allen, Wonderfully done. Wish more would learn YOUR style.

[allendale1962]

Thank you very much!

[robyn256]

You play absolutely beautifully... such fantastic dynamics and feeling. I can always tell when something is really good because it makes me grin involuntarily... great stuff indeed!

[allendale1962]

Thank you.

[Filozofek]

You are topping!

[allendale1962]

thanks!

[david1972a]

You certainly did do Patsy justice. I loved your rock steady left and and the country influence you brought to the cover x

[allendale1962]

Thanks David!!!

[sweetangelgirl122681]

Beautiful Allen! Your friend, Sandy

[allendale1962]

Thank you Sandy!!!

[Dodians]

you're good!

[allendale1962]

THANKS!!!

[maddog5461]

I have been watching this man play the piano for OVER 20 years, and he has always played by ear, I believe he is AMAZING, and I also believe that he isn't quite sure HOW he does it as well. I have seen him learn a song, by someone just humming him the tune. This song in my opinion was done in a Floyd Cramer style, the original pianist on the recording made by Patsy. Hard to explain HOW Floyd played. Excellent rendition though! Len P

[allendale1962]

thanks

[andreigeorgecostin]

wats so  hard to explayn how floyd played?

[maddog5461]

something called "accent notes"

[CornishMiner]

This is a very good rendition Allen. You do Patsy justice :)

[allendale1962]

Thank You!

[BY5431]

Please teach us this piece! We will benefit from it. Most of all it is more blessed to give than to receive. He he he!!

[allendale1962]

I'd love nothing more than to teach this, BUT I am NOT a teacher. I am a pianist

[BY5431]

No not teaching as a teacher with 'methods' etc. but just show us what notes you were playing as even I stared many times cannot get certain notes on the melody. Thanks for yr reply. Just tell us line by line what notes you were playing. Thanks in advance. Even any of your pieces will be fine.

[allendale1962]

Like I said before, I don't have the time nor atience to explain this method of piano playing. It is a God gift and better left unexplained.

[lonelywan]

I'd be happy to teach you our version. Check it out at our U2b page and you'll see it's a much better rendition. This guy missed a number of chord changes.

[syamaguchi]

beautiful. :) thank you for sharing your talent

[allendale1962]

Thank you!!

[maddog5461]

One of my favorites, done really well!!!! Len P

[allendale1962]

Thanks Len!!

[adrianna661]
