Hi guys!
I just did a gig with a Bass Player and drummer that I haven't played with for over 20 yeras. No practice! Just called out the keys and that was it.
Check it out, and let me know what you think?
Thanks, peter

OAK PARK!!!!
Awsome :D
Home to Hemingway AND Frank Lloyd Wright (sorta).
What could be better.
I'm from the Southside myself.

Liked the vid.
Pretty fluid.
And although mostly a jazz sound, at times (just for a second) I thought I heard some Scotty Moore. :)

Wow Paul, you've been playing professionally longer than the Stones! England, Hamburg, through the 60s and beyond.

And you're still ripping it up at...87, is it?

Cudos are in order but it feels like it's even beyond that - being so deeply involved in music for so long is its own reward, isn't it?

Thank you for posting that clip, even though as it turns out it's just the tip of the iceburg of a lifelong odyssey as you say in your bio.

Best regards,

Rick

That's some cool stuff there. Nice video!
