Fred Astaire Really Playing the Piano?
Later, as the band appears at the club (when Randolph Scott has it out with his soon-to-be-former-flame), Fred opens with a very hot stride piano solo. The camera focuses on his hands most of the time, and he seems to be 'in time' with the music. Is that really Astaire playing? I don't know much about his formal musical background. He doesn't strike me as a guy who would 'fake' a piano solo - it appears that, at the least, he was able to 'finger-sync' the number. Can you help me out?
(lol - a guitar solo I could determine - piano? I'm restricted to 'Heart N Soul') (--:
