"The Groove" 4:13

[@QuetzalcoatlusNorthropi_]

Thank you for this awesome tutorial! Could you please also create tutorials for the songs "Jupiter" (Earth Wind & Fire) and "Brick House" (The Commodores)?

[@fredhuybens2783]

Hi Pierre, you make great video's. I think it's not Larry Dunn who played the piano on this song but David Foster

[@pierrejpiscitelli]

Thanks for watching! I checked multiple sources before making the video- all credit lists that I could find say it’s Larry.

[@kenslea826]

Any chance you can teach us After The Love is Gone by EWF?

[@pierrejpiscitelli]

Yes!! One of my favorites.

[@Fusion7843]

Hi awesome tutorial could you do I want love by elton john thanks it would mean a lot to me

[@faustinovarona7277]

September thats what im saying

[@marcusmoberg289]

You think EW&F got the chords from Steely Dan’s ”Peg” for this one, very similar? And it was released only one year later. And then again ”Room 335” by Larry Carlton.

[@marcusmoberg289]

2:13-2:16

[@TheMisterGriswold]

Hearing mu chords.

[@ryan-heath]

How is room 335 related?

[@marcusmoberg289]

@@ryan-heath Same chords as Peg intro just that Larry plays it one key above, D instead of C. Maybe Steely got the chords from Larry since he was their most hired session guitarist

[@ryan-heath]

@@marcusmoberg289 Yeah, I can see the similarity between Room 336 and Peg

[@philchampers9699]

Can you teach 'This will be'' (an everlasting love) by Natalie Cole please.

[@MJ1]

Now do September Fifteenth…

[@pierrejpiscitelli]

I would LOVE to. Would anybody watch?

[@MJ1]

The goal my friend is to not only give the audience what they want… but also what they need. Instructing pop songs will keep them engaged and build an audience. Occasionally dropping in something like Lyle will open minds to such a degree that the desire to play well will take on greater urgency, desire and motivation. Music is not nearly as subjective as we think. If we love it, so will any aspiring pianist. They just need the exposure.

[@llornkcor8880]

​@@MJ1 Very true. I'm not really a jazz guy so I didn't get the reference but I am a fan of all types of music. When I see a video of something I don't know and I have time I will usually watch if it's a person's channel in which I trust their ear, their style of teaching and just their overall disposition...which @pierrejpiscitelli checks all those boxes. I also like seeing comments in a good community like there is here that pique my curiosity and send me on a quest to listen to something new. I checked this song out by Pat and Lyle and must say I enjoyed it tremendously.
