    OMG! Love you tutorial. This piano newbie at 73 will definitely make this part of my repertoire on my PSR-275 (almost as old as me). This video is one of the hidden gems of UA-cam.

    Eventually one of the few who have understood that this is not a minor blues! Bravo. Your channel is great resource and I'm looking forward to learning some other classics. Ciao

    Really appreciate the tutorial. A friend knew I just started practicing some boogie-woogie excercies on piano and suggested I try learning this. It made me study my blues scales and created all sorts of learning. I can't say I understand why certain notes work when they work, but getting there! Love your organ sound!

    thank you!!!! I started playing my synthesizer after 15 years, just to learn this song :) I guess I finally understand that IT IS a good instrument afterall, I used to hate it when I was young and I had to play some stupid songs which I didn't like. But there was no youtube back then so I could learn only tunes my teacher gave me. God bless youtube and you :D

      @nathanzorndorf8214 8 років тому

      Haha thanks man, yeah I used to hate synths too but that was probably because I didn't own a good one, and presets always suck, and programming good sound by yourself is hard. Anyways cheers dude!

  • @snakehips81
    @snakehips81 8 років тому +4

    Oh, thank-you, thank-you, thank-you !!!!!
    I've been playing this tune since I was about 16yrs old (nearly 30yrs). I've got close BUT I always knew there was something not right about the way I was playing the chords - the choice of notes within some of the chords. And, you are playing it in the same key that I play it in - F. I don't think that is the original correct key, but, who cares !
    Now, I'll be able to sit at my new Hammond clone (a Mag C2 0rgan) with an ipad, and learn how to finally play this riff correctly.
    You are an absolute star !!! Many, many thanks !!!!!!!

    pro-tip: learn it at this .075 or 1.0 speed, then play the video back at 1.25 speed and learn it again to master the "performance" tempo which is how smooth and quick you would play it if you were performing the song on stage.
    Great video! Been so long since your last one I didnt even remember when or why I even subbed! But now I do! Thanks!

    apparently booker seems to play the first part differently. mostly in the left hand, where he plays the b and c chords an oktave lower. and i think when on the f chord, he plays an f with the thumb of the right hand on the last triplet, when he also plays an c in the left hand with the thumb which is also not specifically shown here. there is a video of booker playing it on youtube.

    The only thing is that Booker doesn't play the bass part while he plays the high parts. At least not live. The bass and the guitar hold down the low end and he plays on top of it.

    @EuphoniaPooch 5 років тому +5

    It's a good video but pretty typical of everyone that makes these, they spend a lot of time on the first thing they explain cause they're thinking about being clear still and then they forget and are going too fast for the more complex part. In this case that would be an overly slow left hand explanation and then too quick throught the right. not gonna keep me from learning the song but it is a trend.

    should have the digital piano on all your videos to help with teaching, we can't always see which keys your pressing from the viewpoint you give. A tutorial is supposed to teach, kind of hard to learn if you can't see what's going on.This video wasn't too bad as far as seeing fingerings, but some of your others are almost impossible to follow. Your playing is great though
