MR. B'S PIANO CELEBRATION
by PeterOwen on 4/11/11The Ark - Ann ArborIt was wonderful. The piano playing ran from just plain fun to technically dazzling to jaw-dropping. Mr. B is better with nine fingers than most musicians are with ten. Stephanie Trick is as good as a young Jelly Roll. Eric Reed was incandescent, even transcendent with almost every note. And Bob Seeley has now taken over the piano stool left vacant by Eubie Blake.
