Jerry Time (Circus Tracks)

Jerry was born a slave in the Ottoman Empire. He was smuggled out on a shipment of dates. Somehow, he landed in Buffalo, NY and spent the next 30 years in a basement. The music of the legends Fats Waller and Scott Joplin was his cure and his piano was the only contact he had with the human world. One day, Jerry emerged into the light. Blinded by the sun, yet driven on by primitive instincts assigned others of his kind, Jerry discovered the internet where he became the Emmy winning star of It's Jerry Time, which documents his halting attempts to fit in with modern society.
