Thanks for keeping these old songs playing. We'd never know how wonderful these old tunes were if it wasn't for people like you.
-
why is it electrified? and specially why isn't it regulated so it isn't so loud?
might profit from a tuning too, but nice roll :)

Did I hear "Dixie" in there?!

It sounds like there is a mandolin rail installed, but I don't see one

This is totally great :)

Have you ever thought about duplicating this roll with one of many services you can find now and selling the copies on eBay? Since the first time I saw this video, I can't find this roll anywhere. What you have is a true one-of-a-kind roll that once it is gone, I believe this tune will be lost forever.

@bakhirun nah, after a while, the tips of your fingers harden up and it gets easier and easier to play with force, and it can really give you a broad range of sounds to choose from. (there's a lot more you can get out of forceful playing than you might think ;3)

Boy I bet you have to have frequent tune-ups on that poor old piano! The hammers are doing their hammering all right - any live pianist who played that hard would end up with very sore fingers. (Although in fact I once saw a Chinese girl in a contest playing like that, PLAYING THE TUNE with determination and force. It really looked like she hated the piano and hated what she was doing and was taking out her hatred on the poor instrument, nyaaahh. Ragtime is nicer.

Entranced by the music...... but my eyes are torn between the keys and the roll motor chugging away!
