This is clipping right along on what must be a Yamaha. This kid is also playing the solos pretty much as the original recording which is the second link.

In a word: A M A Z I N G!!!!!

Seems like he´s playing over a smf with the drums and patch changes. But the overall playing is his. Incredible!!

Jo

INCREDIBLE!!!! Most very good, well-trained organist could practice for a lifetime and still not be able to duplicate that performance. Oscar Peterson's hands, Barbara Dennerlin's foot, and Charlie Parker's brain. Where the heck do these kids come from? Another planet???

WoW Scott,

What can one say, wish I hadn't spent so much time drinking and practiced more, BTW I think that organ was never made available outside Japan, nice bit of kit. Yamaha Stagea, I only know of two in the UK, I tried to buy one off a chap who was interested in my Audya, I can't think why, he made some fantastic DVDs.

Tony

No Chas,

I know this boy, he's from Manchester England lives not too far from me.

Tony

Well wherever he's from, he's a fantastic talent. Tony, have you seen him perform in person? That's something I'd certainly enjoy.

chas

WOW !!! ...

Very good, indeed...and he makes it look so easy.

Ian

They don't come from any arranger forum, that's for sure!

I would say the Oriental study ethic is far superior then here for sure,..as an example look at the makeup of many Philharmonic classical orchestras...
