Here's the original piano song piece if you want to play it. Although you may need to crank up your volume to hear him play. Needless to say, it was a really special moment, and I'm so glad I was there to capture it.It is a special moment when capture moments like that.It was nice listening to him play. He was almost completely deaf at the time the photo was taken, so he couldn't hear himself playing, but he knew the notes, and was picking out 'Ragtime Cowboy Joe'. Actually the picture I have on the post My Hero's Hero is of my grandad at his piano (relocated to Little Rock). Grandad was quite the performer on the piano, and was always happy to sit down at the piano to ham it up with a little (very little) prodding. Click on the link to visit the blogsite and listen to him play. Here's an older late-deafened gentleman who is nearly deaf plays Ragtime Cowboy Joe and sings it, too.
