    You know the performers are, don’t you? It’s Jo Stafford (who just recently passed away) and her husband Paul Weston. The released a number of titles before they revealed their ruse.

    Wow…guy has two right hands…that’s pretty amazing. Difficult to play that way though, I would imagine!

    I don’t think this would be any problem to play piano, but having two right hands is definitely not normal.

    David knows who the Edwardses were, but didn’t exactly explain what the “two right hands” joke meant.

    Stafford and her husband Paul Weston used to do an impression of a truly awful night club act…Paul playing very bad piano and Jo singing a quarter-tone sharp throughout. And musical cues would be missed or rushed.

    There was a 45 issued from this LP…with a special (apparently promo-only) picture sleeve. It’s at my blog…you can hear both sides of the single.

    Here’s the link: http://zorchv38.blogspot.com/2008/08/jo-stafford-csl-and-whole-lot-more.html

    …enjoy!

    It’s actually not two right hands. He has a rare birth defect where his thumb on his left hand grew out the wrong side!!! :-)
