    I've played all my life, both church and night clubs, and at 50 years old, listening to you lit another fire under my ass! Love your style, and the silky smooth riffs you lay down. I'm just as entertained as I am impressed! You rock, my man!!

      Mike Sigmond Thanks Mike! That really means a lot to me. I truly love creating music and sharing it, and if it weren't for people like you, I wouldn't be able to do that. So thank you for taking the time to simply sit and listen. That is very special for me :)

    Jonny big fan and student of yours love your expressive way of teaching and making it understandable, I've bought quite a few of your videos and a couple of your midi's and they've been very helpful however, I must say, I was a little disappointed that you didn't include this solo material in the midi file, was looking forward to learning that amazing run @ 1:45 :( is there anyway you could do a breakdown vid of it so I can put it in my "bag of tricks" (as you would say). Thank you for doing what you do, I'm forever gr8ful for your playing and lessons. Seth from NC

    • @JonnyMay
      @JonnyMay  9 років тому +1

      +mId NyTe Seth, thanks for your feedback and I'm glad you're enjoying the courses! You are completely right - the version we have on our website is a special "hands separated" version and doesn't have that second section of the solo which I improvised- whoops! We'll be sure to replace it with the MIDI file that corresponds to this performance. Go ahead and send us an email at yandjmusic@gmail.com and we'll send it to you.

  • @stephenwilliams7799
    @stephenwilliams7799 6 років тому

    Great version of Route 66! I bought the intermediate/advanced sheet music, but I am running into some minor problems so far. For example, measures 15 and 16 do not match what you play with your right hand (and don't sound good) so I'm doing my best to mimic what you are actually playing for those measures in the video, which sounds much better. Hopefully there aren't too many of these hiccups in the sheet music.

  • @XxlozbornexX

    Hi jonny, I really love your blues playing. I am really taking blues and boogie very seriously. Could you please help me to decide wich keyboard to buy, all I look for is great key action with great response and great piano sounds for blues and boogie and quiet keys, because I play at night using phones and don't want to bother others at home by playing crazy boogie woogie with noisy keys. Should I buy cp4 or roland rd 800? Thank you and congratulations! You are an inspiration for me !

    • @JonnyMay
      @JonnyMay  8 років тому

      Thanks Fabio! Hands down I would buy the CP4. Best action of any stage keyboard out there, and the piano sounds are great :)
