Incredible Paullongball touch Blues!
Hi everybody! I'd like to rededicate this video to include my little buddy, Benyamin, the 9 year old piano phenomenon.
This has been an historic week for Ben. He has become the #1 featured on youtube, and in a brief time has almost a million hits!
What does the little guy do? He writes to his Uncle Paulie, requesting that I attach a video to his 'rocket', and is trying to help me get out there! Ain't that the sweetest thing you've ever heard? The guy has a warm, caring, heart of gold!

At first, I thought I would respectfully decline, it is his success, and he deserves every bit of it.
And then, I realized the first verse is a declaration of having had the Blues "ever since the age of ten". That makes this song singularly appropriate.
You see, Benyamin still has a few months to go yet before he turns ten!
How nice! He is on the very precipice of the Blues! Perhaps he is the only one I know who doesn't have the Blues yet!
But he will, oh yes, he will! And, mark my words, I'll bet ya he turns into a fabulous Bluesman one day! As quick, and talented, as he is, it might be soon! Yes, he too, will "Everyday, Everyday I Have the Blues"!
I hope the words of wisdom from that old Blues tune are a benediction for him, the one where it says,
"My daddy said, "Son, don't be in a rush to be a man!""

Thanks again, Benyamin. You are not only a fine musician, but (more importantly), you are also a great guy!

ALSO! Welcome Joseph Arlo into the world!
How wonderful! All my blessings and best wishes to you for a long, happy, healthy life! I love you, Joseph Arlo Rhode! ;D

I'd like to thank Alex Chudnovsky, the super talented young man from Australia, whose magnificent guitar solo is featured at the moment. He has kindly, and very generously, allowed this video to be attached to his rocket trip to the moon. He's a fine gentleman, a sweet guy, and a fabulous guitarist! Check him out at
