Haha nice!!! That is what got me started (again) with piano as well... enticing titles like "You CAN play Boogie Woogie". This is one that got me started...

My lesson went like this... "Sure I can do that"... "That's easy"... "Still not too bad"... "Oof... okay..." "Yikes!" "OMG this is boring" "Ugh so much discipline required..." "WHOAAAAAAAAA no I can't..." "I'll NEVER get it!" "Oh phooey to that, I'm going to play Portal instead".

Of course if I had stuck with it 5 years ago I'd play like this by now:

I mean like the baby, not the dad...

A 6 minute video into Boogie? Hahaha, lol, hahaha. Muhahaha, rofl, hahahahaha! Ha ha ha, pfffff.... hahahahhaahhahahahahaa, really? ahahahahhhahahaha.
To be fair, all information is there you need to know. But to spend three months or more just to learn it, is unmotivating. Especially if nobody tells you that it is really hard to learn. You will feel like a fool, then. On top of that the speed you don't gain in early stages, that make you really feel dumb.

But if you play Boogie like the Dad, your kittens go crazy!

WieWaldi "There's no difference between sounding like you're improvising and improvising." Love it!

Enthusiastic but mediocre amateur.

    To be fair, this one was the easiest lesson so far. The Beginner's lessons felt way harder for me.

    I was only too lazy to do a recording. And too lazy for practicing enough, haha.

    Nice! Very boogie/rock & roll like, I love it. And the mother of all turnarounds TWICE, you're brave! Love the ending too... Peter Gunn theme!

    Yes. Christian encourages always to repeat the MOAT. In this lesson, it was even printed in his sheet-music, again! After I learned it the first time, I spent the same time on top of it to get it running with metronome.
    Peter Gunn Theme was actually the easiest part of this very easy lesson inside the easy blues piano course. Really easy!
    (I hope someone pays me one day for every time typing "easy".)

    Haha I almost never practice with the metronome except to get a difficult rhythm down. I feel that sometimes I need to get away from my internal clock especially when playing more classical/lyrical tunes, not add even more precision to it 😃

    So far I haven't been able to add the word "easy" to any of the lessons, though I think lesson 6 comes the closest. I really liked that left hand and adding the right hand wasn't too difficult. Until of course you made me play left hand staccato and right hand legato 😛

    I just started to watch lesson 7 today and I think I will really enjoy that too, not only because it's only 8 bars to learn and not 12. It also sounds so very pretty! And there is no MOAT in it 😂

      Sophia You will love lesson 7 with 8 bar blues 9 times more. And you will learn the C Major blues scale. The Major is not that often used as the minor one. I can imagine it has its home in Boogie and Rock piano.
      I just watched my next Easy lesson #3 completely and can tell this is a big mountain to learn, but it sounds so lovely and comes with a really great ending.
      Stupid thing is, I really really really need to progress with sight-reading. And the #1 recital is about to start. I have still no clue what piece I can play. But I don't want to miss the premiere recital - even if my piece is really easy, short & simplified.
      Blues-piano, sight-reading & recital. I need three hands.

        Yeah, it was really tempting for me to submit one of the blues exercises, but in the end I decided to play something conventional from the method book.

        Lesson 7 is really pretty though - I started the first bar and I don't think it's that hard either. Maybe I can even change the verdict that this is going to be my first "easy" lesson - but I don't want to conclude that too soon just yet, not until I have tasted the full 8 bars ^_^

        Yuupp, lesson 7 was easy! And no cats to distract either this time, they were busy "helping" my husband fix some broken thingemethingie in the house which apparently was much more exciting than me playing a few licks.

        Here it is, onto lesson 8 and my second book already (if only Alfred went that fast, heh)!

        I had a really nice day today. Meet some old friends, have a good meal, no arguments, good jokes, a lot of fun and laughter, all were happy and then this:
        Lesson 6: 6 days ago
        Lesson 7: 6 hours ago 😵

        Buhuhuuuu! 😭😭😭 This is not fair, you are learning fast as a 🚀 and me like a 🥔.

          WieWaldi Yes, but it builds character, so you'll be better off in the long run ... 😃

          Enthusiastic but mediocre amateur.

              Hahaha don't feel bad.... truth be told I watched the video a few times and I'm actually not overly happy with it. It's way too bouncy, too much staccato, not enough feelings. Compare how Christian plays it... smooth... suave... sophisticated. Mine: choppy, bouncy, harsh. So you still have one up on me because your playing is usually very smooth too 🙂

                TC3 😆

                Sophia Christian plays it in slow motion. And I have no clue how he makes it happen to sound so good. If I play as slow as him, it sounds like a bloody amateur beginner, who is trying to learn it.
                Ok, your slow blues was a bit in the humptee dumptee style of lesson 1-6. But only six days of learning is amazing! Play it ten minutes for three more days and listen to Christians version as reference. Then you are that smooth. Ok, with your pace less days.

                In my video you can hear the "style"-break to everything from the earlier lessons.

                      WieWaldi Haha ok, I accept the challenge. I will stay with lesson 7 until it's smooth, probably a little slower, but better. And I want to play it twice, not just once. No lesson 8 for me just yet - first Lesson 7 - take 2 (coming soon...ish) 😃

                          Sophia Puh!🤣 Now I am feeling only like a 🦥

                              Ok, here's another one. I think it's a better version: slower, less mechanical, a little smoother.(open for any critique in case it isn't!)

                                Thank you 😃 And remember: 🦥 and 🥔 are very musical together!
