Harry Connick, Jr - Sweet Georgia Brown and Caravan

I always thought of Harry as a pretty decent bandleader and a great vocal cover artist. But these piano vidoes changed my opinion on just how great a musician he is, in his own right.

Sweet Georgia Brown - It starts slow,,,and builds and builds. I like how he uses the piano as a percussive instrument.



Caravan - An instrumental duet with Ellis Marsalis

That's New Orleans tracks recorded when he was age 11. Aside from his funk years I like most of his stuff especially those used in film soundtracks like A Wink and a Smile.
