@ABitRusty - 

roflolcan't be serious ALL the time, but that IS Morrison playing in the audio (1929)! 

I'm sure I've seen that doc - think I started a thread to keep some of those together... will check later (I'm gettin' outta here).

@ABitRusty -

Thank you! 

I'll watch it again (been a few years) - some great stuff in that thread I need to re-visit. 

I didn't find that video too strange, just funny.  I recognized many scenes from the 1927 sci-fi film 'Metropolis' - maybe not so crazy to mix wild frenzied dancing with the driving rhythm of Morrison... 

...btw, pretty cool that James Morrison was in his 20's in New York when he won a big Fiddle Competition & a couple years later opened his own music shop in Harlem!  So, here was a trad Irish Fiddler right in the center of the Roaring Twenty's music scene!
