This is one of my favorite Merle Haggard songs. The piano isn't really featured but I thought it would be a good idea to cover exactly how the piano is used in the rhythm section on this song.
This is classic country piano - old school. And I absolutely love it.

Thanks!! Loved it. I'm 84 and played by ear since 7 years of age. Merle is definitely one of my favorites for country music.
Thank you so much, much appreciated. Excellent instruction. Bless you sir.
I am brand new to piano but I have been playing guitar for 40 years(badly). I love country piano so thank you very much for this post. It's my mission to learn this song with all the gorgeous fills. Thanks again.
Beautiful !!!! greetings from the Netherlands..
Thank you!!
Thanx, Martin🌹🌹🔥
Back in '72 my piano teacher taught me this as economy of motion. The less distance here; the better. Like your videos.
Love your videos. I’m still learning to play piano. I took lessons for a while when I was seven years old. I had an ear for music and tried playing by ear. My teacher told me if I didn’t stop trying to play by ear I’d never learn to play. I’ve proved to wrong! I’m 82 years old and playing about anything I want. I play in key of C and wish you would do more tutorial in key of C. Thanks for this videos! They are very helpful.
Thanks for that suggestion Marty. Hey, we all love the key of C. ha ha
I too was told by my piano teacher that I had to stop playing by ear - which I was good at. How wrong she was and it messed me up for years. It takes all your creativity away..
I love it..!! Can't play it, but I love it..!!;)
So cool! thanks..
Top-end stuff... obviously because you observe the proper context of playing this in a band. Excellent!
You're very kind. Thank you. In my early years I was a "tornado" pianist, playing everything I could. Obviously I thought I was getting paid my the note. But a good friend loved me enough to hurt my feelings and he introduced me to what I call "commercial style" piano playing, where less is better.
Thank you for your lovely video.. I played guitar all my life, so I'm trying to learn the keyboard.. I find myself getting more into country and blues because of all the technique involved.. It keeps me practicing more..I'm getting older so it great to know I can learn every day!
I would like to thank you for this lesson. Since the COVID hit I have been stuck at home. I have been teaching myself how to play piano and this helps a lot. Thanks again!
Great lesson
Thank a million. I'm learning the piano step by step - your presentation is great. I've subscribed and plan to learn much from you. It is a pleasure to listen to your method of teaching.
Thank you-so helpful!!
I love this video Martin!! You are such a good teacher and I will follow your lessons now. Thank you!
Thank you!!!
Thanks that's great
Thank you for this video. This is such a beautiful song. When you first done the walk up it was just boom....😅 I love it.
Thanks!!!!
Great. Thank you.
Hey, man this is incredible help for me. I just love country.
Thanks for the upload, it's really hard to find examples of how songs are played by instruments in a band, when you buy piano-vocal-guitar sheet music for instance the right hand piano line will include the melody and many of the actual piano fills will be left out. Makes it hard to learn to play the piano part of the song as it should be properly played.
I understand that professional sound guys observe all these minute details about micro-distortions, clipping, etc. but as far as I’m concerned the sound quality of Martin Gureasko’s tutorials are excellent.
Thanks Steve. I do constantly worry about the levels because despite my background in worship ministry and professional performance, I'm abysmally ignorant of the tech regarding streaming and such. Hopefully the videos get better each time.
Hello Mr.Martin (sir) praise the Lord. Let Almighty bless us in these Holy Week Services nd also to celebrate the Ressurection of Jesus Christ. Thanks for ur good teaching along with singing a very beautiful song with chords. Really I felt so happy that as if I was at heaven. No words to express my joy. Awaiting more lessons from ur kindselves. Happy Easter. Almighty bless u nd fmly members abundantly nd fulfill all ur desires for ur scarificed life. Take care. Bye.
Jó ez az Zeneiskola.
love it ！ so beautiful will try to pick up thks
What an amazing video. Cannot get over the style and playing of "Today I started loving you again" brilliantly done. God bless you.
Thank you so much for those kind words!! Thanks for watching the video!!
If you were to record some instrumental albums of classic country favorites on piano, I would listen to them. Especially if you stayed true to the original arrangements. You don’t find that much these days.
Well explained.. thank you.
Thank for your talent
Thanks!!
Thanks Martin for sharing your knowledge with all country music lovers.
The song is so beautifull(less is more)
Your time and efford are well spend,explenation is so good.
Now i must get that country feel of the chords.
10 points from the Netherlands.
Thanks Roland!!
@@MartinGureasko how am l going to learn correct county when l am a beginner without you teach us all? Where do l go from here ? Merry Christmas to you and Family,friends. God bless you.
The next day, I had to search and find this again Martin. What a great voice and with such feeling. I'm an old guy but would love to play this on my Yamaha Clavinova but I have Macular degeneration so I can't really see all those little black buttons or even know how to set the Clavinova up to sound worth a s**t.
Really liked your tutorial, everyone is teaching jazz. I like country. Keep them coming. I do play alone, so I need base.
You might want to mention Haggard's piano player for many years, with The Strangers, was Mark Yeary.
Thanks for that reminder!! I need to script my introductions so I don't leave out details. I just speak off-the-cuff.
Realy nice teaching technique ,great merle haggart song .just love the way you explain it alll
Keep up the good work .
Need more people like your good hearted soul who help us all out if you know something thats an interest to other's then pass it on. As you cant take it with you .this utube channel is just amazing .,,thank you
Thanks Tony. I will be doing some more country piano videos soon.
I really enjoyed everything about this awesome lesson, thanks a million!
Man im glad i follow you sir! Its hard to find country tutorials. Thank you for you effort! RIP Mr Meryl Haggard. On of my all time favorites
Just came across this Martin ,love it great way to teach this song thanks for sharing!
Thank you. I loved this lesson on RUclips. But since I am a beginner and old I would be helped if I had the note on a sheet not only the cords. Can you help me?

Thank you for this tutorial. This is a part of my style. A large part being Floyd Cremers contributions. I naturally gravitated to this style..as a rhythm and lead guitar play this style. Most country and gospel music have many of the same licks and these licks transfer
very nicely to the piano. I totally agree completely just a little on the left ghosting so the band doesn't step on each other..
Yep. When I first started playing piano for a local gospel group, I had the bass player gently tell me to stay off of his notes. ha ha
Just wonderful, if I could only get that resonance on my Yamaha Clavinova. Great voice and piano. Thanks a lot.
I actually use Garritan Abbey Road for my piano sounds. I load up a patch in Logic Pro and then use that. My keyboard is a super-cheap Casio I bought years ago and I only use it as a controller. Currently my favorite Abbey Road Patch is the Classic Solo Piano 1 patch. (In Logic Pro I also use the EQ to boost the bass a little so it isn't so thin sounding when streaming online.
Excellent!
So beautiful - made me want to get up and dance. You are totally awesome!!!
Thank you Jane! "One of these days" I'm gonna get around to posting more.
Thank you for this lesson! It seems hard to find those who will teach Country piano. LIked, Subscribed, and turned on Notifications.
Thanks. I've been in limbo for a long time trying to decide what to do about my blog and this channel. I am working with a guy right now to get both up and loaded with plenty of videos. Stay tuned.
Martin Gureasko Fantastic!!
This is so geart and I will pratice that for sure it will bring improve in music life
Thank you so much
Thanks.
Ok martin. Youve done it now! MORE!!! Lol
Hey Just love this song and the way you play it. The link for music notes is going to a dead end for me. Can you give me a fresh one...Thanks
I updated the link in the description. This is one of my older videos and some of the links got changed.
@@MartinGureasko Fabulous..Thanks very much.
Country Piano
Once somebody learns the economy of motion movements, piano playing becomes less forced and much smoother. Thanks for the tips. Even though I play this style..always looking to learn something or review..
You and me both! I scour the Internet all the time looking for new licks and fills, etc. I'm actually thinking of going back and taking some lessons at the University of Delaware. I've got a Rachmaninoff piece that is kicking my butt...and I don't have the technique for it. :)
crap. i'm at the wrong place.. i was looking for "just got started loving you" lol
Well I hope you enjoyed the video anyway. :)
Thank you
I loe what you're doing but its to advanced/fast for me. Do you have anything more beginner?
Most of my videos are for intermediate and advanced players. In the future I will do some videos that are more basic.
where can i find the pdf you mentioned?
tinyurl.com/loving-her-again
you again
I ran across your piano playing style on You Tube by accident and it caught my eye and ear. I want to know more about the numbering system. I can read notes from a Gospel Hymn book with 4 part, and that's about it.
I'm working on my own book about the number system, but there are several great books already out there. If you are familiar at all with scales, learning the number system is a piece of cake.
Kenneth Barrett if your still interested in reading music I can give you some practical tips.
Kenneth Barrett This is year old post.. just wondering how your piano is coming along.
Oh yeah I just made a toy piano video. it was out of tune and the video was poor.. but it was fun to make.. I don't know how to link, but you'll get a kick out of it.. I'm not going pro anytime soon.
Hey Martin. I have looked all for this in F. Where did you find this take? Thx
hi martin any more of them songs that has the same tempo
Where do I find the music?
You can download the chord chart by clicking the link in the description above. There is no written music (sheet music). This particular style of playing is a broken-chord style accompaniment and perhaps in future lessons I can notate the various ways of playing this particular style.
I love the music. I hope I can learn to play it. I'm curious how you get the graphic of the keyboard and notes played at the top of the screen. Is there software that does this?
The graphic of the keyboard is a free program called vmpk. I simply created a channel in Logic Pro and direct it to that and the keys display whatever I'm playing. There are several other apps out there that do this as well. This is the one that I found years ago and I've never switched.
Hermit good question.
Martin Gureasko ok I'll check into the app.. how do you get it into your video.. I'm an old TV tech, I'm capable but not up on all the programs.. I took computer programming on a ibm 370 at college.. learning Fortran.. we had to enter things into computer by Punch cards.. back in mid 70s..
Found a really good site.. it's for beginners and up .. The guy is doing the 736 progression and have a lot more resources. Do have a public email address.
Martin Gureasko emailed you a link.. idk some of this technology.
Am I missing something? At the beginning you say to alternate the left hand with the one and the five but your playing the one and four. Am I wrong?
Hi Michael, excellent question. In naming intervals, name the interval in relation to its distance from the root. Since we are in the key of F major, C is a 5th away from the root, or F. The note "C" is the 5 of the scale. It doesn't matter if you play the C above the F or the C below the F, it's still a one-five alternating pattern. It is true that if you play the C below, it looks like a fourth, but the C is functioning as the fifth of the F scale. That is why I say "alternate the one and the five." Hope that makes it clearer.
Need help, I just play by ear. I know the chord changes and can change the key.
Is there any help for me?
I play in church every Sunday..
Jean Billington, Hey Jean. Yes, there’s help for you. Visit my blog and subs tube to my email list for free piano video tutorials.
ok, will take a look at it.
I can't find where to download the pdf of the music?
I didn't create a written transcript, but did to a chord chart with some performance notes. You can download it here: martingureasko.ipage.com/transcripts/today_loving_again.pdf
@@MartinGureasko Thank you very much.
Lol, maybe Jerry Lee could teach you some clean, solid country notes on them ivories...... smiles 😊
Thanks for your damn jabbering, please keep your music and the damn gabbing.
Thanks for your kind words.

I think I'll make this comment separately. The piano makes sound full. But I know your a pro, but beginners have a tendency to play the melody..sometimes that's ok.. but I like to leave some room for the guitar lead.. I cut my teeth on Chet's albums.. lifting the needle and stealing the next lick.
Public confession...I played the melody for years when I was first starting out. A friend of mine, who was a much better musician, gently moved me away from that. He reminded me I wasn't getting paid by the note.
Martin Gureasko That's funny. Sometimes a friend can say something that by another would hurt. I like solo playing but there is lot to said for 3 piece bands.. I always like to have a bass in the mix. The sound of a bass is percussive and let's the piano delve into different styles.. Of course Victor Wooten is his own band.
