And Now — A Chicken Plays the Piano

There's just something funny about chickens. I'm not real sure what it is. I mean, chickens look ridiculous to begin with, but when they start to go through all those herky jerky movements, comedy ensues.

I guess just about everyone has seen the old standby piano playing chicken. They have one at just about every fair or festival all over the country. The big difference is that the guy who put this together had the chicken "play the piano", then took what the chicken played and orchestrated it with a fully produced background.

This chicken actually pecks out a pretty decent melody. He doesn't have a lot of finesse when it comes to technique, but he seems to have a pretty good ear as far as pecking out a melody goes. So, settle back and relax to the newest New Age sensation: the fowl followup to Yanni or Zamfir, if you happen to remember them.
