Paul Shaffer and the Tonight Show Band - Slaughter on Tenth Street - February 1987

Paul is a legitimate musical genius with a huge catalog of songs always at the ready.

That was an amazing organ performance-----The Ventures group had a great guitar rendition they called Slaughter on Tenth Avenue during the 1960's- also amazing.

The weird thing is that I had *no* idea what the title of this song was until recently. I heard it playing in the background on one of Leonard Bernstein's 'Omnibus' (a PBS show that preceded 'Young People's Concerts')

Great performance always

Master Paul Shaffer...simply put amazing!

Super medley. Paul's acrobatic style is unique, a real joy to behold, among many legendary players. He can lay back too just as skillfully. The Letterman theme never fails to thrill.

Paul was a beast on the organ keys.

I love watching Chris Elliott impersonating Schaffer playing keyboards.
