    I am glad that the Elders of my Church have not figured out to use this song as the music during the offering. I would have kept pulling money out, just to keep the music playing! Thanks for the great videos and keep them coming!

    Tommy. I can finally go in peace now that I found the exact "joyful noise" I want played at my memorial. Thank you so very much. This is THE song and you are THE song player that my loved ones will hear. I don't want any sad faces at my send off.

    Tommy - I'm just trying to learn to play Blues on my Clavinova 605... Your songs are so good (specially Just a Closer walk with thee and How great thou art). Tears come to my eyes when you play..... even though I cant play like you, I am learning a lot from your technique and fills - You've just converted me to play Gospel Blues....

    Could you maybe play house of the rising sun? I am not sure if you know of that song or not I hope maybe you do, That is a pretty song too, and with your talent I am sure you could play that as well. Again awsome song and playing, you have good taste in music and a talent for playing a organ, I love the organ sound on piano. Thanks again Elanna.

    Frank Foerman here, Hey Tommy, You are my favorite piano player. you remind of Henry Wiggins in your musical ability
    He was 99% blind and consequently his personal hygene was not good at all and he smelled like he haden't taken a bath
    in like forever.but he sure could tickle those ivory's He played in churches around Nahunta, Ga. You are great!
