This made me smile. Michael J Fox stills plays the guitar really well. Parkinson’s disease hasn’t robbed him of this pleasure.
Michael has always been a very good guitarist. Check out the movie Light of Day where Michael & Joan Jett plays brother/sister aspiring rock stars. I’m pretty sure Michael played with Joan Jett for real in that movie.
I need to get this on dvd and rewatch.
Anyway, here’s Michael replaying Johnny B. Goode with Joan Jet!!!
At a Washington charity benefit.
Check out the video at the bottom of the page. Michael’s still got the chops.
I’d totally forgotten there’s a Light of Day soundtrack LP. I have this one somewhere in my record collection. Some great music with Joan Jet and Michael J Fox.
I just showed this to my sister the other day–it was mentioned on the BBC Newsfeed that comes with Firefox. I even read that he actually knew how to play that song for Back to the Future, even though he was going to be dubbed. That’s dedication.
And apparently he does this every years, since he said at the end, “Thank you for coming out this year.”
