  • We saw Pinetop with band few weks ago at Dakota Jazz Club in Minneapolis. Concert lasted over 2 hours and 3 out of 5 musicians on the stage were over 80 years old but what an energy!! One of the best concert ! I wish younger perfomers learn : you cant fake talent and you should always play for yours and audience pleasure .  Pinetop needed little help to walk but once he started playing , he was ageless, furry of energy, I thought this piano will not make lol. ,:)

  • Pinetop is emerging as a new musical sensation at age 93. Life is weird.
