If Bach (or other composers) wrote the Cantina song from Star Wars

These guys are really good.  This is great fun.  I particularly like the Oscar Peterson version, and the Pete Townsend (Teenage Wasteland) one is a hoot.

    Great fun and what a talent for shaping the music! It reminds me of John Bayless when he did Bach meets the Beatles. Incredible musicianship.

    Funny, I thought of Oscar Levant when I first saw Oscar Peterson's name. Both were amazing pianists, how anyone can play as they did is beyond me.

    That's f'n funny.

    Including Mozart Beethoven, NIN and AC/DC would have made it complete.
