How to Play a Funk Groove on the Piano : Funk Piano Song

[MrTheguyofbigbite]

Chameleon by Herbie Hancock, anyone?

[Criticalperspective2]

I don't need to learn this, because I can replicate it by hearing it only once.

[JeriDro]

nice job sir!!!!! Funkville indeed!!!

[obesefishdrummer]

the learn this in ..... was really useful, thank you

[Pillowpally]

this sounds really similar to sly and the family stone..

[DzaveD]

drums are included? :D

[BlasianRice]

He looks like the guy who got his hand cut off in the movie Hancock :P

[Masteuszmm]

Probably no one will ever reply to this ... but Is there any chance of getting actualy music sheet for this because i hate learing off youtube ... or at least music sheets for all the parts / variations ?

[toodsf1]

@Masteuszmm groovewindow . com then click "how to play a funk groove" on the right hand side of the screen to find all the videos and the PDF of the music

[Masteuszmm]

@toodsf1 I got it allready . thanks for answering though :)

[gcastellanos02]

I typed in funk piano songs and this came out. Its awsome, but its not what Im looking for. Anyone have any suggestions for some particularly funky piano music

[biggimoon]

Learning by doing...thank YOU...

[GotLakai686]

damn! part 13 is off the hook!! Brilliant

[kingbill733]

has this been transcribed?



[paquinho12]

it's like he's giving us the fish but no the ability to fishing.

[paquinho12]

sounds nice, but this video won't help anybody to learn to play funk music... you will learn only to play THAT patterns... to copy like if it was a tutorial for learning any piece "by ear". another nice trick to you to your friends.

[MultiVoodoo666]

thumbs up if this video helped you

[hcasrahcs]

In which part do I learn the groove starting at 2:25 min?

[hokangkia]

too hard for a beginner like me >.<

[Stacklucker]

....I learned all the parts, and I can play everything he plays, but it stills sounds crap in comparison to him... :'(

[djadudeguy]

@Stacklucker practice ;)

[LinChannel]

i will marry u

[GyreFunk]

[Umadbro72]

[tonyburza]

Thumbs up if you want "Part ???"

[RexKwondoSystem]

Jonathon Wilson, Doug McKenzie, 7notemode and other similarly altruistic pianists should finish the job off by coming to the UK and gunning down all those middle-aged piano teachers who are trapped in interpretation of sheet music and brainwash their pupils to be the same. Long live JAZZ!

[envolopettly]

[KadlecSvk]

@envolopettly he's just improvising :)

[Musiccisum1]

Its a jam on Chameleon by Herbie Hancock off of the Headhunters album. ( one of the best and revolutionary funk/jazz albums of all time) Enjoy

[vitnetas]

[frizzzzzzal]

Anyone have a transcription of this?

[colpaincharles]

[yoursola]

This guy is amazing!!!

[eaterofcandy]

0:50 <-- Replay button for you all

[Cyrix166]

download it, slow it down, and memorize it.

[Zarlanga]

@pyromaneak47 i would say it's more a variaton of that bassline than an inspiration

[clonewars10]

he looks gay :s

[Aimismyname]

But I don't understand, where are the videos where he taught these parts? I don't understand. Would anyone care to help moi?

[fitzyuc]

If you like this, you'll love Chameleon by Herbie Hancock. Thumbs up to show others who haven't discovered him yet?

[kyoukilis20]

@fitzyuc oh man i forgot how funky that song is

[SurroundSoundLive]

@fitzyuc Oh my god, I found that song yesterday, and it's changed my life lol. My band is funky, just in a whole different way. Please check it out!

[manta965]

@fitzyuc so random but Chameleon is a great song . I guess the bass intro line is similar.

[StrawberryJungle]

@fitzyuc I'm pretty sure the first groove IS Chameleon, lol.

[Barefoot67]

crazy good!

[johntsunami]

how the fuck are we supposed to know the lessons if they dont tell us

[MrCembilgic]

CHAMELEON! :D

[MinkElder]

That is somewhat different from your other tuts; You added your own "spice" too it, but none-the-less superb. That's what happens when you get into the music. Most Excellent.

[megadrummer2]

Holy smokes this guy is fast. I can totally hear this kinda stuff in my head but my fingers just won't do what i tell them.

[phionahchin2000]

Nice! BTW – you can learn to play this song in half the time with new gadget that reads MIDI files.

Google “Gizmag and PianoMaestro”

[ulusot]

the bas ostinato sounds a bit like herbie hancock chameleon :-) any way nice groove :-)

[benjaminnourri]

Very cool

[sotopagla]

Nice job! Just wanted to share with you a cool piano gadget recently featured in Gizmag Google “gizmag pianomaestro”

[TheAssirampiano]

Learn to play the piano in half the time with new gadget.

Google “Gizmag and PianoMaestro”

[SanFranCrisko]

Great stuff Mr Wilson! Tight/complex syncopation, rich voicings and decorative fills - it's an awesome range of skills on display!

[ganjalistic]

its a walk in the park, I play just like this before I eat breakfast.... I wish :S

[MrCrank112]

KULL

[3CheersForMe]

the funk is going threw ma body n ma soul~~~~ one day, sir, i`m playing almost as good as you :J

[dansimmons21]

that funk was so sick i pulled the funk face all the way through cos i was sick in my mouth due to the sheer sickness of that funk.

[utopiandesign]

To have the tutoring skill of this instructor, FREE, is totally unselfish of Jonathon. Music professors charge upwards of $150 hr. This guy shares his quality expertise free of charge. Mr. Wilson is to be commended. And may he be richly rewarded for his generosity.

[sk8rbuoi]

@utopiandesign I completely agree these videos are beyond fantastic. Not to mention how talented he is.

[RobertDaza1]

@utopiandesign

Me encanta, es tan valioso su aporte,.  deseo aprender de Ud,

Gracias. Cesar Celis

[RobertDaza1]

@utopiandesign 

[TheUnknown921]
