Alone in the Ring
I originally posted this in December 2006 as a "How-To-Play..." video. This short piano piece is entitled "Alone in the Ring" composed by Bill Conti. It was featured in the "Rocky" movies that my dad used to take me to as a kid.

Duration: 4:34
File Size: 24.1 MB
File Format: MPEG-4 Video Podcast (.m4v)
Update: As of August 1, 2006, the YouTube version of this video podcast has received over 10,000 views and has been favorited 176 times. Pretty cool. Of course, when I see that other videos are up in the hundreds of thousands of views, then it's a bit more humbling. Nonetheless, this is by far the most popular podcast episode of the bunch. Hopefully once I get settled into my new job and home, I'll be able to do more followups to this.
