Winifred Atwell plays her signature tune, 'Black and White Rag', as part of her farewell performance on The Mike Walsh Show Episode 1087 on 17 June 1981.

Winifred introduces the song in her characteristic warm and understated manner to an appreciative audience. The three-camera shoot focusses solely on Winifred's playing. She playfully winks and connects with the studio audience. It's a professional production but could have been improved if we were given the opportunity to see the audience enjoying the performance as well.
