This page houses Seth's YouTube vids. The majority of these recordings are of him playing tunes from the Hot-Jazz and early swing era, but you never know what you may find (there are some explainer videos, a few personals ads, etc., with lots of drunken madness thrown in for good measure).

Also: you can visit fingersflynn.com for more info (especially about the forthcoming album, tentatively titled "Down and Out," which should be available on Itunes sometime during the summer of '09).

I'm a stride pianist, former journalist, poet (several books under my belt, one still in print), a terrific drunk, lover of insane women, booze, living in the bar, the internet, madness, horror, insanity, the symphony (I particularly enjoy Tchaikovsky and Berlioz... the late Romantics always get me).

ALSO: I now have a podcast where I DJ an album from my record collection called "The Vinyl Freak" (with me, your host, Captain Midnight). You can check out relevant (or ir) details at www.lvclke.com/PODCAST
