What the piano is best at

[barking_iguana]

As much as I love symphonies, classical piano usually seems like a budget get-what-you-pay-for orchestra to me. THIS and its like, OTOH, is what pianos exist for. (Well, that and Scott Joplin, which arguably IS classical.) I wonder if my piano lessons were more focused on the kind of music I wanted to platy if I would have progressed more rapidly and stayed with it longer than the five years I did.

Skip Edwards is the keyboardist. I like his and Rivers' version a lot more than Huey "Piano" Smith's original.
