No, George doesn’t play piano. George plays fortissimo. Non stop. As fast as he can.

Would have loved to see Gershwin and Chico Marx perform a duet.

I wonder if they ever did?

He also took a vaccine after that video. It’s impossible to know which of those two things caused his death 6 years later.

LOL, you're right.

If you can’t tie a knot, tie a lot.

A few years back, the concert band I was a part of played Rhapsody in Blue with George as our special guest artist. I took the Gershwin Plays Gershwin piano rolls that had been converted into a MIDI file. His tempo was so all over the place that I had to add a click track to the file for the conductor. Also “smoothed” a few tempo changes. It was still FAR different than what you are used to.

The band sucked… a bunch of old high school band nerds that missed playing, but it was still interesting.
