A real work of craft and artistry....a thorough understanding of the mechanics of the instrument and how to make it sound and feel beautiful. Wow.

Awesome video. Wow!

Hey guys. I noticed the date stamp in the corner 4876. So would that be the 48th week of 1976?

[@fregot]

I once did a little work on "Selma", this is Don's "Lucy".

[@saucedevourer8858]

Lucy, Selma, Grace, how many damn Rhodes does he have

[@logosthedestroyer]

its a pity the sound quality is so bad, of the sound, becase that looks like a really nice piano

[@alexriesenbeck]

I would totally be listening to Citizen Steely Dan while repairing this... how insulting lol

[@qbertykey6223]

Cubilas Right. But, DF would be listening to SW...

[@Gomez561]

Yeah! What song was that at the beginning?

[@jebi-rhodesjebigonzalez5105]

Back check only in the mid? Why?

[@pjlabarge]

Not ENTIRELY sure, but it's quite possible that because Donald mostly plays in the mid-register while he's singing/performing, that those keys need the most attention and attack. Allowing that faster response.

[@oranjuly]

Wow what song are you playing? Sounds great!!

caves of altimira at the end....played very beautifully
