  • Just wondering what he's doing with his left hand?

  • @xfugio Sustaining (loud) pedal, which isn't automatic on these Pianolas.

  • The Ernie Kovacs televison show theme was based on this piece. Where would one go to purchase a copy?

  • @PRR5406 This is a BluesTone recut from Rob DeLand, unfortunately not presently available. It must have been recut many times over the years, and your best bet would be to locate a secondhand copy.

  • @risingchads Would you be able to send me a slowed-down MP3 of this? I'd really like to make a dictation, and learn this particular version for myself.

  • @risingchads Thank you for the response. I realized that what I'm actually looking for is "Oriental Blues", by Eubie Blake. Essentially the same melody with variations, used by Ernie Kovacs.

  • Well done Julian!
