I am glad somebody mentioned him on this site. He was so great I loved all his movies. He was also a great pianist.

Never look at the trombones. You'll only encourage them.

No offense to anyone but we pianists tend to take ourselves too seriously at times. We need things like this to remind us to lighten up. Dudley was a killer player. I believe he went through college on a music scholarship.

I love the long over-the-top coda he does over the last two minutes. The look he gives the audience at 3:40 is hilarious.

RIP Dudley.
