when he played the little Richard song on the harpsichord does anyone know who was playing the piano? and what band was playing the song?

reply

John Goodman did that performance himself.

wow, that scene rocked the house, for a long while i thought the "good golly miss molly" tune during the end credits was a re recording by little richard for the movie, just like he produced new music for the movie "down and out in beverly hills", anyway since then i have realised that little richard actually has re recorded that classic rock n roll tune just a year after this movie was made in 1992 in case you're interested in an updated version. this story about americans adapting to british customs is such a common theme, like the married with children episodes as they travel to london, in twilight zone episode "passage on the lady anne"...



above the snow and rush hour heavy traffic,
escaped earth in spaceship,
some peaceful planet with earth in sight,
bringing the ruler over dreams of mine,
set up a simple farmhouse with this ideal of womankind,
here no technology no highways,
company of her blessed forms is all i crave,
on this peaceful planet in space.
