Thanks, man. Great job! Please, can you play Supertramp piano songs?😊
Thanks!
Thanks! Much appreciated! 🙏
You should explain also what are you doing with your left and cause you're doing a patron that's help a lot and it's frustrating not to reach that rithm
Love this Coach, thank you!
erm... GREATEST Piano intro ever? listen to Lamb lies down on Broadway, listen to Firth of Fifth, listen to Rock is a drug, ... well ... listen to Trilogy 🙄 come oooon whats great and what is ... well... o.k. ?
When you show the LH there are 4 notes, when you add the L and R together the left now only has 3 notes!
Thanks Adam for pdf, backing track etc. you are very lively 🎉
Huge intro
For me, it’s not so much a 8-maj7-5 pattern, because when looking at the base it‘s actually a IV-V-I(1st inversion) pattern! So the „maj7“ is actually the third of the fifth. If we Analyse the embellishment, the IV is actually an Emaj7 / IV maj 7 (as she uses the D-sharp). I also don’t see the final chord of the pattern as a Bsus2, as it doesn’t function as a tonic, it is unrest and I would rather see this as an E6. But - in any case still a very helpful analysis for piano beginners!
Awesome lesson!! Thank you.
Please do Bridge Over Troubled Water intro.
Great idea!!
You are an AMAZING teacher, Sir! This is great👍
Thank you! 😃
All of your videos are valuable, but this one is especially impressive. Unlike nearly all other RUclips presentations, this one provides insight as to how to incorporate these techniques into our own playing. You are true to your intention to help us expand our creativity.
Great, very helpful
The best piano intro ever is The Way It Is by Bruce Hornsby.
👍 You’ll probably enjoy this then: ruclips.net/video/MhMsQX7j9X0/видео.html 😊
Hmmm!! Perhaps. I’d say Bat Out of Hell, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, I Don’t Like Mondays.
Super lesson! The Bb in the key of C makes it really interesting. And thank you very much for explaining so clearly the "boxed-in chords"! Can't wait trying it out . 🙂 I discovered your videos only a few weeks ago and I enjoy them! Another positive aspect: you pronounce very clearly so that I can understand everything😀 Thank you very much from Germany!
Nice
WOW - it might take me yeears to e able to do these ........... Whew!! love them though!! i should get me a good piano..... the keyboard is not that comfortable.... Can you help me choose a good piano to get for beginners? one not too expensive that i can work on to get me be good at getting my fingers walk to the keys? I appreciate any inputs, and thank you for these videos. I am motivated....... 🤞🙌❤
I enjoyed this, Adam.
Your production is superb!
Nice concept idea, and top quality video thank you :)
Estoy en deuda con el algoritmo de RUclips, este canal es la mejor recomendación de piano tutorial que he visto en años. Magnífico.
man, i loooove your content! could u make a video teaching The 1975 (BFIAFL) song? You’re great!
Thanks! Great idea!
Wow! This is GREAT! Thank you, Sir.
You're very welcome!
Hi Adam. In one of your recent videos, you played something which reminded you of Handbags and Glad-rags. You quickly played a bit of it; then moved on. One of the most emotive intros ever written; by Mike d’Arbo. This would be another great “Best intro ever written?” tutorial. I think you should. And I’d really appreciate it. 🤞 Did I say please? 🤔 I’m not sure… Please. 😊 Cheers, David.
Great idea David! Another 'Greatest Intro' video is coming out tomorrow as it happens... Handbags and Gladrags would be be a really interesting one to do!
Thanks
Thanks David! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I absolutely love this. I just want to learn this chord progression and I will be good for a long time. Been trying to learn for a year now and this has been the best.
Lots more of this kind of stuff on the channel! Glad you enjoyed!!
Man I love your channel! I am learning so much. And it’s so much fun. ❤️. Thanks.
Awesome! Thank you David!
This is brilliant many thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
*I’ll be working on this and F major is one of my fav keys!* 🎹
Awesome!
Nice little nugget....thanks
Excellent work - and an excellent guy behind it!
The pdf request on your download page does not work. Tried several times since yesterday. Hit the button, it comes back unchanged, and no mail input.
Hi - send me an email adam@thekeyscoach.com and I’ll send it straight over 👍
@@thekeyscoach Fast and straight - faster than real time! Thanks for your excellent help and excellent work!

Thanks!
Hi. I would like to purchase the extended PDF lesson book only (I don't need the backing tracks). Is it possible?
Yep! Here is the link: shop.thekeyscoach.com/b/RQs2t
@@thekeyscoach Thanks. I'll purchase it.
Awesome piano chord progression
Glad you like it!
Great info
Glad it was helpful!
Absolutely brilliant, Adam. I just love that!!! Thank you so much for the post!!!
My pleasure! Glad you found it useful!
That s Eb9 sus4 (V dominant)
I agree This is a Fabulous song. Randy Newman is a great human being too! He gave us film music students free tickets to his concert in the Usher Hall Edinburgh then gave us a wee talk on film music after he finished his brill concert when you’d think a meal and a chill-out would have been so much more needed. Thank you Randy Newman that was so much appreciated.
Thanks Graham!
The cadence wasn’t too bad to master but the stretch from c to d for my pinky and 1st finger was painful 😬🎶
It is quite a stretch! Glad you enjoyed!
Great man!
This is a great harmonic tip. Thank you Adam.
Glad it was helpful!
I love your channel with so much to learn, and you are just a Great Teacher ! Thank you 👍 BR
You are very welcome! Thanks!!
Grooves 1 & 2 are very cool and with a little practice I can get them down at a slow tempo. Gaining speed will take more time but I feel confident. Groove 3 is beyond my capabilities at this point!
Awesome - glad you enjoyed! Groove 3 is definitely a challenge! 😅
Adam You are the reason I am going out to purchase a keyboard today! I have only ever dabbled with the ivories and have always wanted to play piano and now I have a reason. Time to let my guitars, trumpet and clarinet gain some long overdue dust. Keep doing what you are doing. Cheers
Ah Anthony that has made my day! Best of luck with it! Lots of videos on the channel to get you going once you have your new keyboard!
Will you please do a video for the blues run and chords at the end? Love it! Thank you!!
So glad you found it useful!
Yet another brilliant tutorial, Adam. You are invaluable!!!!!
So glad you found it useful! Thanks Lisa!
