This has been one of my favourite piece ever since I first hear it played by Fats Waller. I didn't really notice it much then but always enjoyed it when it came on. Later I used to listen to a lot of Johnny Dodds and his recordings of it was great too. I then heard it played by a band a friend of mine leads. Once I got home I looked up some sheet music for the piece and it's been one of my favourites to play ever since. It's probably got to have one of the most moving melodies of any jazz song and is also great for double time so is always a lot of fun to perform. Great performance here. I really enjoyed it
It’s brilliant and I love it. No music means their brain is playing along with them. So clever. I don’t know how they do it. I can’t even whistle a tune. Bravo.
AMAZING!!!! Lyrics: Now won't you listen honey, while I say, How could you tell me that you're goin' away? Don't say that we must part, Don't break your baby's heart You know I've loved you for these many years, Loved you night and day... Oh! honey baby, can't you see my tears? Listen while I say: After you've gone and left me cryin' After you've gone there's no denyin' You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad You'll miss the dearest pal you've ever had There'll come a time, now don't forget it There'll come a time when you'll regret it Someday, when you grow lonely Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only After you've gone, after you've gone away After you've gone and left me cryin' After you've gone there's no denyin' You're gonna feel blue, and you're gonna feel sad You're gonna feel bad And you'll miss, and you'll miss, And you'll miss the bestest pal you ever had There'll come a time, now don't forget it There'll come a time when you'll regret it But baby, think what you're doin' I'm gonna haunt you so, I'm gonna taunt you so It's gonna drive you to ruin After you've gone, after you've gone away.
You did a fine job. It was a very smooth combination of styles. I've chatted with Scott a few times, I'd say he'd be happy to have been part of your performance.
Thank you very much. I'm very pleased to hear that you think Scott would have approved of the way I included an excerpt of his arrangement. I'm a big fan of the work he does over at Postmodern Jukebox.
That was wonderful! I thought I was listening to an Ampico piano roll! Your performance and dynamics are very authentic to the post WW-1 era! Very impressive!
Once - max twice a year - I come across a piece (piano, electro, pop, jazz... music in general) I find myself being obsessed with. This is one of them!! F*** awesome dude 🥰 and thx sooo much for sharing the sheets, you made my day
Read your description and eventually find myself in it :) This song is also my favorite one throughout the series, and your arrangement showed me a new aspect of this song. Love it
Thanks, Marnie! It means a lot to me to hear that you've enjoyed my recording so much. A lot of the passages I played are clips I transcribed from performances by Stephanie Trick and Daniel Souvigny.
@@RetroPianist Of course !! Your channel is great, I love that you do old songs on piano - it’s my favourite stuff to listen and it’s great to see someone else who shares a love for the old stride tunes. Keep it up ! :)))
@@RetroPianist I downloaded the sheet music and look forward to the challenge of mastering it. Thanks for offering it for free, too! Very generous. Please keep these old numbers coming. They are a joy to listen to and play!
Hi, Nick! I'm hoping to get at least one recording done for Halloween, so with any luck I'll get that posted next weekend. I also have a few other pieces which I'm currently working on. Life and work have been crazy lately, so I haven't been playing piano as much as I'd like, but I'm trying to get back into it. Thank you for checking in - I can't tell you how much I appreciate your continued support and interest in my music.
@@RetroPianist Hey Alex. Thanks for your response! Glad you are considering some new material. Yes, life’s routines tends to curb our efforts at stuff that’s really important; like music! Hope all is well.~~N
This is one of the best versions next to the original by the Capris I've ever heard. Why is the audience just sitting there in their chairs? Shouldn't they be up and dancing? I would have!
This is so beautiful! Would it be alright with you if I used this in an interview video I'm doing with devs from Bioshock Infinite? I'd of course credit you in the description :)
Yes, you have my full permission! You're interviewing the BioShock Infinite developers? That's amazing. I'd love it if you could share a link to your video once it's uploaded.
@@RetroPianist Will do! Thank you so much, yeah I’ve already recorded interviews with a number of BI devs (not Ken Levine lol, but they’re all very cool)
I'm here as a result of my search for information on the Harmonic Major :) Someone wrote a wiki that an example of such songs is After You've Gone but it is this one? there are a few others, but also without the author's name :( 'Blackbird', 'Sleep Walk', 'Dream A Little Dream Of Me'
I'm guessing that this is the same song the Wikipedia page was referring to, but I don't know if the particular arrangement I played in this video uses the harmonic major scale. It does use a lowered fifth at times. Music theory is not one of my strong areas - sorry I can't be of more help!
@@RetroPianist you don't know much theory and came up with this arrangement? Whoa dude, you are awesome. Awesome playing, I wish I could play half as good. Congrats!
@@pymebones Thanks so much! I can't take much credit for the arrangement though since I learned it by ear and based it on arrangements by Stephanie Trick, Daniel Souvigny, and Scott Bradlee. It's sort of like a combination of transcriptions.
From what I can tell, she plays it in B flat major. That's based on the several recordings of her that I used as a reference when I was learning the piece
Thank you for the sheets and awesome arrangement! You should also check out Jimin Park's version if you havent already: ruclips.net/video/K7L0Quz_yS8/видео.html
I have seen Jimin Park's rendition and it's amazing! I also love her performance of Hazel Scott's "Taking a Chance on Love": ruclips.net/video/QJ3lf1e0PVQ/видео.html
I don't believe so, no. I think the song you're referring to was written by Harry Tierney and Joseph McCarthy. "After You've Gone" was written by Henry Creamer and Turner Layton. Perhaps you heard the same musician record both songs?
Bring the sheets and wipe away the debt
Love it. Sheets are linked to in the description, by the way, if you need them :)
Hahahahahaahahha
You play just like my grandpa, he learns everything by ear
Felt like I traveled back in time!! 🎶
Outstanding rhythmicity. There's lots of competition on this song but this version clearly stands out.
Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it!

Lyrics:
Now won't you listen honey, while I say,
How could you tell me that you're goin' away?
Don't say that we must part,
Don't break your baby's heart
You know I've loved you for these many years,
Loved you night and day...
Oh! honey baby, can't you see my tears?
Listen while I say:
After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone there's no denyin'
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal you've ever had
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
Someday, when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone there's no denyin'
You're gonna feel blue, and you're gonna feel sad
You're gonna feel bad
And you'll miss, and you'll miss,
And you'll miss the bestest pal you ever had
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
But baby, think what you're doin'
I'm gonna haunt you so, I'm gonna taunt you so
It's gonna drive you to ruin
After you've gone, after you've gone away.
Thanks, Claire!
LOVE this arrangement and your touch.
This version is so beautiful! I listen to it all the time
Thank you! Hearing that means a lot to me. I'm happy to hear that you like my version so much 🙂

Great expression in your playing. Enjoyed the music.
Thank you very much! Keep up the great work on your own channel. I enjoyed your jazz improv video from March.
One of my favourite songs! I love the Ruth Etting version. I love bioshock as well! You got a good choice in games sir!
Well, thank you very much! If you like this kind of music and BioShock, you've got great taste yourself!
Oh man, it was really awesome ❤️
Thank you! 😀
Man, this is a s**t hot performance of a great piece!
Very nice! This is a lovely arrangement, well played. :)

Wow, I'm in a smokey public bar in 1950's London!
Good job, excellent perfomed.Unfortunately, I can't play on the piano like you 😌
Thank you! Considering how well you play guitar, I'm sure you could learn to play piano too!
@@RetroPianist thx Retro, for your kind words 😊

Thank you!!
Nice stride piano style. 😀
Thank you!
Well done.
Thank you very much!
Great job
Thank you very much! I listened to some of your music, and it's very cool.
Thanks you :)
I like it,
wow
This song itself is serene and not frenetic
Older people usually like classical music or calm things but I think this song is optimal for all ages.
This is one of the best versions next to the original by the Capris I've ever heard. Why is the audience just sitting there in their chairs? Shouldn't they be up and dancing? I would have!
Bravooooooo***** utube john bavas crazy
Beautiful music thanks dziękuję 👍👍👍👍plus sub
Thank you so much, Marius! I'm glad you liked it. You have some nice music on your channel, too.
0:35 what is the name of that genre ?
Hmm, I think you could probably say it's a type of jazz. Maybe a little blues mixed in as well?
This is so beautiful! Would it be alright with you if I used this in an interview video I'm doing with devs from Bioshock Infinite? I'd of course credit you in the description :)

¡Muchas gracias!
I’m looking to play the old timey part of that song, where does that start on the sheet music?
Do you mean the part starting at 2:07 in the video? That section begins on bar 53 of the sheet music.
In what key does Stephanie Trick play this? Thanks
From what I can tell, she plays it in B flat major. That's based on the several recordings of her that I used as a reference when I was learning the piece
Thank you for the sheets and awesome arrangement! You should also check out Jimin Park's version if you havent already: ruclips.net/video/K7L0Quz_yS8/видео.html
I have seen Jimin Park's rendition and it's amazing! I also love her performance of Hazel Scott's "Taking a Chance on Love": ruclips.net/video/QJ3lf1e0PVQ/видео.html
@@RetroPianist Thanks I have not seen this one until now. Incredible!
Isnt this.... This has the same artist who wrote "Sweetheart we need each other" right, no?
I don't believe so, no. I think the song you're referring to was written by Harry Tierney and Joseph McCarthy. "After You've Gone" was written by Henry Creamer and Turner Layton. Perhaps you heard the same musician record both songs?
