If you can find a recording of "Kitten on the Keys" played by 'Knuckles O'toole' it is very good too. Somewhere I have one of his 78 albums.

The audience loved it. (Being central PA, they are a bit reserved) -- And the mikes were not set to capture audience response. This year there were some 'stompers' in the audience. Luckily, not close enough to the cameras to make them shake.

Wow! What a masterful performance! I've listened to this song a lot because, let's face it, it's unreasonably additive, but this performance seemed to breathe new life into it for me. Absolutely fantastic playing -- and showmanship, too, I might add. Audience looks pretty uncomfortable and kinda cynical, though. Sorta odd...

Amazing. Imagine finding a guy who can actually play Kitten on the Keys all the way through. Then try 2 guys who can play it in the same room at the same time and make it sound like its one piano ! Awesome talent! well done! thanks alot.
