'Ghost Riders In The Sky' was so much fun to listen to. Thanks!
Very nice! Have been listening to old Hallowe'en music this week, and you played a couple of pieces I'd been hearing from there ... plus Trick or Treat. I hadn't known it was originally from a Donald Duck cartoon, but I'm not surprised it's connected to Disney, since I've heard Disney use it in live shows around the parks for decades! I'd leave a link to a live performance, but TH-cam seems to remove those, even when they are to TH-cam, itself.
Like your rendition of The Vamp
Love the lighted witch ghost standing on the table behind you, Adam. It blinks in time to your spooky playing! SCARY! Happy Halloween! 🎃👻👺💀
You surprised me with a piano “gunshot” in there for Frankie and Johnny!

I was wondering about the Jellyroll Morten piece, Grandpa's Spells. Are they like dizzy spells or magical spells. Maybe old Gramps had a bit of voodoo in his heritage. Just wondering if you or anyone else knows about this song title and how it relates to the music. :)
Of course I know of Theda Beta, but not this tune. I would say what you are playing frequently in this music I know as "vamping;" any connection?
Yes, the old musical saying, "Vamp till ready"! I assume there is a connection... the oom pah bass. And the name is spelled "Theda Bara."
