  • What is that? A KR107?

  • yes, I believe that is the model number - possibly a KR105? Either way, it is another great piano Roland provided us for the shoot

  • Scott Houston can't sing!

  • @titanicpiano14 No argument there :-)

  • Shut up people. All of the talking is helpful to me!

  • Hey Steve JOBS! Never knew you play piano

  • LOL so gay

  • Thanks Mr Jobs..

  • he talks to much

  • I know you probably wanted to simplify this for beginners but the song is indeed completely different.

    The bass line in the beggining is: chord D F# A sliding to D# G A# and then it's the obvious blues 12 but starting from D# and not C. The melody then starts with F# and continues with D# and C etc.

    Or at least that's what my ears tell me.

    The beggining is really important because it's so typical, it slides UP not DOWN and the feeling of the chord is very different from C.

  • @NazifNB Thats the first thing I noticed....some piano guy can't even dictate a ascending minor second....

  • @silvermediastudio The problem is that i already did it, and i'm from mexico and i don't speak english very well, and i already know something to play taht, but now i'm stagnant and i don't know what else to do :S

    Any video or idea? :)

  • @LtHeltors4763 Sit at a piano instead of your computer. That's a good start.
