Layla (piano part only)

[W3R4P3STUFF]

this is one of the better versions of the layla piano part on youtube nice job...i play guitar but if i played piano this is the one piece i'd love to learn its awesome

[KLEMENTD]

Out of tune piano, but that's probably because you play it a ton and the hard work shows. Good job.

[theerion]

Heya, thanks for that, though the truth is that piano's never really played anymore. I was just visiting. Cheers.

[Tarantulasagna]

This is so beautiful. Best scene from Goodfellas with the pink cadillac.

lol and I like your intro

[theerion]

Thank you!! :-)

[theerion]

Thank you :-)

[SpartnPride]

U have a lot of talent! Did u learn this by ear?

[theerion]

Thank you! Yes, I did ... years ago, I put on the CD and played it over and over until I figured it out. It's a very pretty piece of music.

[Aayudh008]

I wish I would be able to play this music one day. It's my all time favorite along with Lord of the rings and Gladiator music.

[theerion]

You can! And LotR and Gladiator is also amazing music.

[EvanyGrunge]

Wow, fantastic. 5/5

[theerion]

thank you!

[glenb73]

Terrific man. Sounds so good on a real acoustic piano. This is one of my favorite piano songs and you played it very nicely!

[theerion]

thank you! :-)

[StyleSessions]

:O really gud

[theerion]

Thank you :-)

[xkateycakes]

this is fantastic! i can play up to about :27.. then i start having trouble.. you seriously make it look so easy...!!!

[theerion]

omg THANK YOU! you're way too kind :-) I'm confident that your 27 seconds are absolutely sublime, though!

[jon1858]

Excellent! Really well played.

[theerion]

thank you!

[f27271t]

Very nice

[theerion]

thank you :)

[mkschreder]

oh so you play the piano too, cool! I like it, sounds great :D How long have you been playing?

[theerion]

i took classical piano lessons for 10 years, but I haven't played in 20 years. this piano belongs to my family, and I tinker with it whenever I go visit them

[jjmax90120]

i need more of this. its so great, good job

[theerion]

aw! thanks!! :-)

[ljsey]

Yeah I picked it up from cd, but my Korg Triton sholdn't be out of tune, well I hope it isn;t lol. Well I can play along anyway, even if its not quite as impressive as yours, cheers mate

[theerion]

you are too kind - carry on, friend. :)

[ljsey]

I learn by ear also and this is pretty much how I play it, but I have come across many tutorials on here that play on the white keys, what is the reason for this??

[theerion]

hmm, good question. when I learned it, it was from the CD - maybe the piano's out of tune (probably) but at the time, it sounded correct, pitch-wise. as they say though, i'm sure there are many ways to skin a cat. :-)

[spootyskater]

can you send me the sheet music for it.

P.s. how did you learn it, by ear?

[theerion]

I learned it by ear. I don't have sheet music, unfortunately, but next time I'm visiting my family, who has this piano, I'll make a tutorial. Cheers!

[spootyskater]

thanks, great job btw

[theerion]

thank you :)

[jivechump]

beautiful! could you possibly create a tutorial? breaking it down and verbalizing the chords going along? p.s. will send money

[theerion]

thanks! i don't own a piano, so I'll have to put something together next time I visit my family. Please deposit $6.3 million into my offshore account. :-)

[sebasredspecialfan]

Can you change from €20 million?

[Dansull123]

Awe my favorite part of the song that most radio stations cut off

[theerion]

thankya!

[cmgstringbender]

Wow, Dude I had no idea you could do that.You need to come play some Reese Wynans stuff with me and Quinto. Damn, I'm gonna watch that sh*t again.

[theerion]

I'm no Reese Wynans, but I sure could have a whack at it. I need to get my Hammond repaired. This piano's at my folks' place, and I'll be tryin' to record some BLUES KEYS over Christmas to see if I'm capable of it. Thanks broseph.

[at90percent]

Haha, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree then.

Your version informed me of a couple of places where I played it wrong.

I might have to make the changes and repost. :)

[at90percent]

Your version is much nicer than my version.

Great Job!

[theerion]

Well thank you! I just listened to your version, and well, I think yours is better... so there! ;-)

[vmandanici]

This has always been one of my favorites - I think it came out when I was in the 6th or 7th grade... I'm dating myself now!

[RUREDY2ROK]

nice bro...... I would love to play my guitar to ur piano, when i get my mic/camera maybe we can overdub, neways, I like it alot, piano is beautiful...

[Veralucy]

10.000 Flowers this (2nd) time!

This piano version was...highlevel!

Regards and congrats to your muses (wife and mother)!

[theerion]

oh thank you vera!! a 2nd time! :-)

i will share your wishes with my muses - i love that

[Isodig]

That's very cool bro. It sheds some light on how you are picking up guitar so fast.

[theerion]

thanks bro - you think it's helped then? i took lessons when i was a kid but haven't played in years

[jonniebock]

You also need to invest in a more flamboyant costume and perhaps a large candelabra if you're going to continue on with the piano jams. Maybe some sunglasses.

[jonniebock]

Do you know how to play "Candle in the Wind?" Cuz that would be TIGHT!

[theerion]

Yeah that'd be cool to play - trouble is, I don't own a piano so it'll have to wait until I visit my family next time :-) I'm hoping to get a keyboard soon, after tinkering with mom and dad's piano after years of not playing

[MusiCureSanity]

nice my friend!

[theerion]

wow thanks! nothing short of ironic that you comment, since before recording my vid, i was watching YOUR latest vid - my dad tells me "i bet you'll hear from some keys guys after posting something" - cheers

[PEACequaLsanityWORLD]

well, you made some nice comments on my vids... want to check you out and glad i did. great song and great cover... hope you get to play more for us! peace and best all ways from japan, eLi G.

[stealurface1976]

nice bro...multitalented...beautifu­l piano as well man

[theerion]

thanks man -- i wish i'd kept up with piano more - if i'm LUCKY i might inherit the baby grand (neither of my folks play and well, I have room for it in my house now..) :-) again, cheers and thanks my friend

[strat2caster]

i know i commented on this vid but i cant prove it...must have a receipt around here somewhere!

[theerion]

yeah some weird commentary anomalies on this vid - strange!

[straymouse]

Wow, you are a great pianist!!

I like this part of Layla and your playin.

[theerion]

Great Man! I agree with thegratefulhead.. record that with the Slide guitar part that would sound fantastic!

[theerion]

if they ever give me the piano to take home (not holding my breath) I'd be tickled (like ivories) to tinker more with it!

[strat2caster]

awesome bro youve gotta teach me that !

[theerion]
