Allen Dale-Fraulein

[mr1georg57]

Haven't posted for a long time but have listened to you play Fraulein many times since i first posted. I was stationed in Germany at Ayers Kaserne 1956 and 1957. This song would be playing on the jutebox most every time i would go in the cafateria or club. It was played off base and at clubs in Geissen Lang-gons and ect. Brings back many pleasant memories dancing the night away with a beautiful Fraulein. Thanks for bringing back the memories when i hear you play the song Fraulein Mr Allen.

Excellent. Great ragtime feel. I have always loved this melody since first hearing it on the radio as a young boy.

[ShedowLink]

in german we say Fräulein, with an Ä this is a letter you don't use in america!^^

[allendale1962]

I know that! There is not an OOMLAT key on American keyboards.

[SummerRkl]

Excellent!

thanks.

[rayhicks3]

Not to nitpick, but the title is spelled "Fräulein"

[allendale1962]

thanks for the corection.

[maddog5461]

Thats MY Fault, HOW do you put that little double dot over an A???? I usually post Allens vids, so blame me not him, LOL, Laterz, Len P

[rayhicks3]

It's called an umlaut. Generally one needs a keyboard that accommodates special characters like that. I did it by googling "fraulein" (without the umlaut), and "Fräulein" showed up in one of the listings.

[rayhicks3]

I forgot to add that I cut and pasted "Fräulein"

[spitgalore]

I don't know how you do it. There are so many keys which all look alike & yet you never make a mistake, thanks.

[allendale1962]

Thanks I make plenty of mistakes, but I cover them well. LOL.

[maddog5461]

actually, If you really look closely at any keyboard, all the keys repeat, hence the 2 black keys, then 3 black keys, etc. A piano goes from "A" to "G" only seven notes, and then starts over at "A" again. The black keys are sharps or flats, depending on what key you are playing in. But theres no way I can explain what Allen does on the piano, I just tune the darn thing. Laterz, Len P

[spitgalore]

Thanks for the lesson. I'll watch & listen to him play forever & ever. I hope you all will be around forever & ever in good health. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks and bravo Allen

Your style is unique

I was wondering : don't you play boogie too ?

[allendale1962]

I will try and incorporate some Boogie Woogie down the road. It is not one of my better styles tho.

[allendale1962]

[jnizny]

Now I thought that this was recorded by Bobby Helms years before Jerry Lee's Version?

[allendale1962]

It probably was done by Bobby first, But Jerry Lee was the first recording I heard. Thanks for the info tho!
