Can't believe I missed this.
Great job! I'm a part time jazzer but nowhere near this level. Please, do post more of your improvs.

well thanks Chopinlover :)  I don't mind if I do.   I have posted this on another string but given the fact that my vids are seldom viewed (here at PS) I doubt anyone will mind... heck I even sent a link to Chopinlover with a PM

Wow, you rock:-)
If you posted a Chopin etude I am sure every single person would watch :D I think we have more classical music oriented pianists here.

thanks...  wow... will you come to work with me and tell that to my students?  ... please.  I will buy you lunch at McDonalds even.

actually, these days, I teach far less and I perform far more... which is why my playing has taken an exponential leap forward as of late.  I am so relaxed and cool now...I can even sing without panic attacks.. When I experience guilt for not carrying a student load of 45+ I just come here to PS and do a little "pseudo-teaching" --- or as I like to say ... waste my time...LOL.

THANKS for your kind words... I really do appreciate them more than you can imagine. :)

Don't know what you've been smoking recently, DC; you've done anything but.

thanks Chopinlover01...  but you know I have wasted plenty of time here arguing over the stupidest stuff... Even though  now and then I do have an informative post                               
and what I've been smoking is beside the point... 8)  ;D

It may be besides the point, but it's probably clear if you say it bluntly.

wow I thought the system would replace bong with "water-pipe"

I guess it makes allowances for sound effects...

the church is always upset with Sister Mary Jane... and she's such a laid back sweet lady.

Why thank you.... I sure will! actually, I hope someday to travel the world and do nothing but Master Classes that I will charge a small fortune for.   I will be difficult to work with, make unreasonable demands, and  I will have an entourage of "yes-men" who are young and handsome that hang on my every word.

that's my ideal retirement plan :)
