Thanks! Very glad you liked it :D

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.  I appreciate it!

I think you get the "feel" of the music better than many others, especially many of the players that style themselves "stride" pianists nowadays, yet have little or no left hand, or worse, have a good left hand but spoil it with completely tasteless (and un-stride-like) crap in the right. I'm pleased to say, you embellish and decorate this piece JUST RIGHT. Eubie would be proud.

I've watched a number of Spitznagel videos now, amazing. Take that from a 30-year old piano player who has played for 27 years. :)

Spitznagel definately one of the best. He has a grooovy version of Bach up to me.

Wish I could play like this then I would be playing in bars.
