Kiitos agooTV!!!

[TJamesBell]

This is one of the coolest videos I've ever seen on YTube. He just plays that song so effortlessly and beautifully, as if he'd been playing it his whole life, and in the back seat of a car no less, to an audience of probably two! Just sublime. It really seals the deal on just how crazy talented Roky really is. Even more so than the great documentary You're Gonna Miss Me even conveys, and that's saying alot.

So effortless...Roky has an amazing natural talent for music. His mind was pretty gone at this stage wandering into dark corners and yet he can still play something like this without effort and play with emotion. Legend!
