This is the most accurate chord and rhythm representation of this song out there bar none.. Almost like most other attempts haven't even tried to listen to the original recording.. So if you're seriously wanting to learn this song THIS IS THE PLACE!!!! Not to mention the author of the tutorial is a super nice guy.. Keep it up Bro!!!!
I have played this song for many years. It is finally a pleasure to learn how to play it correctly. You have put this guitar player on this path to enlightenment. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for sharing your gift with us. I was looking for a tutorial for this song and here you are. unfortunately I can't play this song at 90 bpm so I'll have to modify somehow due to arthritic hands. But I will not give up LOL
This is really the best video out there. I kept trying to find a good chord chart and everything sounded so off. Also, I loved the way you chunked these parts out, very easy to follow. Thank you!
Wonderful tutorial! Every year my family and I record a Christmas song and I’ve been attempting this for a while. Thanks to your video, I finally nailed it 😊
Very good job. I think there are so many variations of this song because few can really hear/play it. Thanks for this tutorial. Now I can correct some of the mistakes I've been making over the past 30 years.
+pianoworkout I've been a pianist since age six, while I read some music, most of what I play is by ear, much to the chagrin of my piano teacher. As a senior now, I'm learning more of the jazz chord licks from listening to others play and from CDs. Being retired now I can spend more time watching the tutorials.........Thanks.....That's how I learned to play "Hey Nineteen" by Steely Dan
@@pianoworkout Sneaky is a good word. I used to play his version of whats goin on in a band and his version of the changes always caught me off guard. Thanks again for the video, saved me some serious time getting ready for a gig.
You have the cool clear eyes of a seeker of wisdom and truth. Well your hands convey what we can not see of your eyes. What a talent you are!!! Your hands are chiseled from years of playing and practice which makes me feel guilty for not having practiced more. I have but 2 requests. 1) Play all things Donny Hathaway and 2) Add Steely Dan to your book. Especially the later stuff. Thanks and keep up the great work.
this is an INCREDIBLE tutorial. Most valuable one i have seen as i am basic and this has challenged me so much on chords but i am glad cause i LOVE LEARNING
Congrats for your excellent work about this song! Very accurate chords or at least the right color if you will. I subscribed. Thank you Sir for your good lessons.
SALUTE .YOUR A EXCELLENT TEACHER .I LOVE HOW YOU BREAK IT DOWN ..THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE DONE ...THANKS YOU SO MUCH .YOU SURELY EARNED MY SUBSCRIPTION ...THANKS AGAIN
This is an outstanding tutorial man! Thats the way to do it. I love it. Its cool you add a practice track at the end as well. You have another subscriber already :)
pianoworkout Your video Tutorials are some of the best put together and easy to follow, that I have seen. I am definitely going to invest in an I-pad so I can start learning again. Thank you and hope you'll do more Classics like this. Doobie Brothers would be a good. Cheers Adrian, Australia.
this is fundamentally comprehensive and AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! i honestly don't think this video could have been any better.. especially with the "squirrel" moment when you go into the other song addressing Donny's chord phrasing!!! that's EXACTLY how my brain works too!!! LOL
@@pianoworkout it's from that animated movie "UP" where the dog in the movie looses his train of thought when he sees a squirrel ... so it's kinda like a slang term for when some gets off track and focuses on something else for a brief moment...
@@pianoworkout I so appreciated your teaching this classic. I’ve been working on it for several days now.. I know you’re working on a way to download the backing track for a fee.. I’d love to be able to play this with the backing track for my family this year.. Anyway I could Pay Pal a email address to and have you send it via email.. Not trying to press you. Just exited.. Always wanted to learn this song with the right chords and voicing! Thanks again!
