  • Yep! That's right. He made this one up as he went along. Plum BEAUTIFUL!
    This all took place at the end of this years Annual West Caost Ragtime Festival held in Sacramento, California every November.
    Their website is www.WestCoastRa...
    I hope you can come witness the musical wonders at next years festival.

    Just when you think that humanity is headed for the dumpster along come someone like Tom Brier and you realize there is hope, after all. "Gorgeous" - that's minimally the case.

    If any moment in music can be captured for eternity make it be this magnificent waltz which, amazingly, was as extemporaneous as was wonderful!

    At the very end he shares the secret. "Stream of consciousness improvisation". What a perfect stream he's tuned into!

    Let me know when you post your part of the folk rag that he improvised just after this. I started recording when your battery or tape ran out, so I'll be sure to post mine as a response to yours, to get as much of that improv together as possible.

    Mr. Keeper,
    I haven't run across it yet, but I suspect it may be on a tape just prior to the one this tune was on. I'll know in a day or two and try to remember to clue you in. There was certainly some hot fun stuff going on and I hated to go to bed, but I was worn to a nub!
    Ta ta,

    Hey, is Tom going to the festival this year? If so, I'd love to watch him play. The Red Lion Inn is off Arden Way in Sacramento. I've been there many times.
