whooh1 1 this really lifts this otherwise maudlin song . A little little bit of Scott Joplin but no Irish content .

[allendale1962]

@queenievenus Glad you liked it.

You did a wonderful interpretation of this song. I am not familiar with your work, but I will try to listen to more of you. Personally I prefer this sung as a ballad, however I think as an instrumental, this rendition may be the best I have heard.

[allendale1962]

@oside66 Thank you.

@oside66 ...Without a doubt, it's the best I've ever heard!....Oh, to be able to play like Allendale !!

[WC86EVA]

I used to play "maggie", but after hearing your version, I'm ashamed to even try it!..You're GREAT, FANTASTIC and all those other complimentary words. Thank you so much for sharing.

[allendale1962]

@WC86EVA You're welcome

This is a terrific version of the "When you and I Were Young Maggie Blues". It's a 1921 version of the original Maggie song, played as a duet, to jazz it up. QRS has a piano roll with lyrics for both songs to be sung together. This is just great. I didn't thgink it could be played on a piano by one person. Keep them coming, Al
