Default Dude Sits Down At Public Piano.... Gives it a Schoolin'

From: liveleak . . .Video: Graham Trott

Henri Herbert, keyboard player with the Jim Jones Revue (a high octane rock and roll band from London), gives an impromptu performance on the concourse of St Pancras International station, London

He cites Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Albert Ammons and Pete Johnson as having influenced his style.

The piano he is playing in this clip is one of several that were placed around railway station concourses in London last summer, for any member of the public to play. Henri decided he would give an impromptu performance to help promote an upcoming boogie woogie festival.

Dan... That's great. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing that people are so focused on getting from point A to point B these days they barely notice. There's a lesson there somewhere.

Dan, Thanks. I did a little research of the Jim Jones Revue and purchased a few of their singles after sampling. They are one energetic group!

Something like this might make me late for my train. I would have stopped to listen.

That was fun. Thanks for posting.

For me it is a bit odd that I enjoy that music played live or as here via video. I don't think I would want to just listen to on the stereo. Some performances are better when viewed.
