...and just in case you were expecting a real cat, um, he's not a real cat.

Hi flatfoot, Until now, Slim was just 'a name' to me.......I could not have told what he did! But what a talent.......very entertaining.......melodic.....great jazz feel...wonderful technique.....which is a Scottish way of saying "Cat's got chops to waste!" Thanks, Joe G.

Thanks so much for this post as until I clicked I am almost ashamed to call myself a musician and have never heard this musical genius before.

Mom and Dad had a record of his when I was six. Near wore the grooves off of it.
My siblings and I just about laughed ourselves to death.

Not until my twenties did I learn his name, and the extent of his brilliance.

I had never heard of him. Quite amazing talent. Thanks for sharing.

And I loved that the audience of that time clapped on 2 & 4 and stayed there during that one guitar tune. Never happen today.

Yas indeed. At one time, performance like Slim's was the norm among the topline entertainers of the music world.

Around the same time, there was this cat that far too many don't know today, his name was Phineas Newborn

Add me to the list of the thankful that had never heard of him before this video.

Can you imagine Slim and Victor Borge trading comedic chops? I loved the upside down hands bit at the beginning! Notice how every number was his '2nd number'?
