How to use the Blues Scale on Piano - Riff ideas from Paddy Milner | MusicGurus

[@GeorgetteBu]

If these kind of instructions were available when I started music studies as a child, it would have made such a difference for me. I have over 40 years of theory under the belt, that I learned the hard way, especially being a young female serious musician in the 60's. Bless You For This!

[@sauliusltcool6902]

I know, it helps so much! I can say I already play a decent if not good blues and boogie-woogie. I learnt all about it from youtube.

[@houmm08]

What a mild mannered nicely paced lesson. Thanks Mr Starkey

[@LAKXx]

timing @ 3:50 helped so much, made me realize thats something most tutorials are lacking

[@amrmanel8905]

Didn't know Ringo could play piano this good !

[@finnmolenaar8610]

[@patriciakieley7997]

Hah! He does look exactly like a young Ringo!

[@IdealViking]

Love how you broke down the timing for the left with the right (4:00-4:20) thats whst I've been struggling with the most. Thanks!!!!

[@tadpolesoup]

I appreciate your simple and straightforward teaching method as it makes learning and remembering concepts much easier and faster than others I've encountered!

[@jeffjohnson7381]

Wanted to just say I love your lesson with the blues format…your explanation was excellent and would love to see more examples of licks runs etc with this style 👌🎹

[@youssefbejjaj3825]

👍 you're definitely the greatest! Sir! I hugely love it! Thanks a lot!

[@Dan-wq8id]

My favourite online piano teacher so far! Thanks man

[@nancyjanetsmith]

Thankyou for an extremely helpful slowed down demo. Wonderful!!!❤❤❤

[@ericgamliel8500]

This is great. I feel like you just planted the seed of playing blues piano into my head. And all I got to do now is work it over and over again.

[@jeffjohnson7381]

❤this blues lesson…can you please explain some slow blues style..with left hand comp chords with right hand runs licks etc…really want to learn this type of music in depth as much as possible 🎹thanks again Grant😊

[@peterlorenz9766]

Thanks Mr. PIANO WIZARD! What a wonderful BLUES lesson. Starting with the BASICS...very essential. Great how you explain what to do. Very inspirational. Just THRILLING. Awesome... WISH (ME) YOU WELL 🙏🎹🙏

[@nbtd1959]

You are quite adept at the piano and your teaching ability. How you ever received 45 thumbs down is beyond me.

[@paulrhodesquinn]

Quite adept! You sure know how to give a compliment 😉. He’s one of the finest Blues players in the world, which is why he plays with Tom Jones and used to play with Jack Bruce and many other greats.

[@nbtd1959]

Thank you for a brilliant lesson!! And that gorgeous U3 ? Yamaha has a twin in my living room:)) I keep mine open as much as possible and the sound blows me away. I’m going to be playing the blues very shortly, thanks to you!!

[@colettebonvarlet8511]

très instructif !! merci beaucoup 😊

[@ZacharyToolsoet]

Thanks. Nice ideas, which I could work out immediately and play. Simple, but effective and useful. Sounds good when you play it. very clear. excellent video of the keyboard. So, technically great, attitude great, music great. Big help. Thanks a lot.

[@dmitrit81]

Thank you, it’s very interesting and useful 😌🎶

[@edrock26]

Excellent tutorial! Thank you, for these tips.

[@patricktruchon9153]

Really good. I noticed you move your thumb to your 4th finger in Left hand. Hard to tell if your playing the 5th with 4 or 5 finger. Intrigues me.

[@МаксимЧалий-х2ц]

Дякую вам.Чудовий урок))

[@izzy6863]

Great tutorial!! Thanks Paddy!

[@MatthewRaymor1]

Wow! You are an incredible teacher!!! Thank you so much!!!

[@theophilusmartins]

Truth Taurus He really is I’ve come along way watching a few of his tutorials.

[@EL_Newman]

Great tutorial thanks!

[@pantano207]

Good stuff. The pig of it, of course, is keeping the left hand going steady without sounding mechanical or manic.

[@theophilusmartins]

pantano207 That’s right! Once you have that down, you’re halfway there.

[@mrnettek]

Agree...I find it ridiculously difficult.

[@briankelly2670]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is struggling with the left hand.

[@Robertlavigne1]

The left hand is so brutal to get down. I have been working on learning a left hand pattern other than the basic shuffle. I've put 10 hours of solid practice over the last 2 weeks into it. Starting to come together but it is still so rough. I can play known licks over top of it now, but with any improvisation it all falls apart.

[@rcrewe3733]

@@briankelly2670 EVERYONE struggles. If you don't struggle you ain't human. Nobody was born knowing how to do this, or have it come easy. I've been at it over a year and just now getting a little comfortable with it (I'm still not there, but it's coming and now almost forgetting how hard it first was).

[@flintlong2937]

Great player! Great lesson! Sounds so damn bluesy! I love it! Great feel!

[@keiferreefer1]

Haha, I second that, at first glance I thought, oh my Ringo is giving a piano blues lesson, I know he plays in C, he says so on a record, early 1970, ha. Anyway, I've been launched into blues lately, I'm a guitarist , but man, so important to know what the pianist is doing, blues piano adds a lot to the group, just like boogie as well. Pianos so logical sometimes compared to guitar. Yeah man, wow r u ever a dead ringer for Ringo at some point in his life, amazing resemblance .

[@XTeam49]

This helped, ALOT!!! Thank you so much!

Fantastic very informative video.thank you

[@mtmals9786]

Just spent over an hour on this. Doing this all week end.

[@Greatdad]

Love to see the PDF that goes with this (or any of the lessons) since it's hard to watch the fingers and tell how many times you strike keys. On the G - F# riff, I think you go GGG F# GG F# GG F# but not sure... My timing is completely off on the first riff too alas... I don't know if an online video course can correct for that.

[@MusicGurus]

Hi there, you can buy Paddy's full course here, it's got 9 lessons with a PDF for each, including this lesson: www.musicgurus.com/course/introduction-to-blues-piano-paddy-milner?
