So I was playing around at the piano, trying to figure out "Maxine", from "The Nightfly" by Donald Fagen (DVD-A, of course), and realized I actually had the song book from 30+ years ago. Sadly, even with the book, my lower skill levels at the piano are no match for the abilities of Mr. Fagen, so I went to YouTube to see if there was a video showing how the song could be played, just basically to watch it being played. Of course, like almost everything you could think of, there are video's there of people showing you how to play the song - or almost every song ever recorded.
Anyway, that's not why I am creating this thread. As I wandered through YouTube searching for Maxine related posts, I found this one. It's amazing. It's so amazing I watched it multiple times. It's one guy doing the entire song with the exception of the sax solo. All the voices, all of the instruments. It's astounding.
If you like this song, please spend the 4 minutes or so it takes to watch this video, then comment. This guy is excellent. I would love to hear his tribute band live, and I usually despise tribute bands.
Anyway, check this out. The dude's name is Scott Sheriff, and he's from Nashville:
