Sly & The Family Stone "If You Want Me To Stay" Piano Tutorial

[@jazz_addict7079]

You may not realize this but your tutorials are very useful for guitar players looking to adapt piano-based based tunes to guitar. The fact that you identify all the notes/intervals in each chord makes it easier to get a more authentic sounding arrangement, compared to using common guitar chord grips. Your pacing is perfect and whether I'm working on a tune or not, it's very enjoyable to just sit back and listen to you play and sing.

[@karlismusik]

Wow I am so grateful for your support. I am so humbled to hear that you as a guitar player find my tutorials helpful. I love the guitar! Thanks again for learning and playing with me 🙏🏾

i fucking love you! You play all the songs I study. this is a really good one. Your jesus children is the only version of the chords I could find. I really like your way of teaching. I cant read music. im a drummer studied afro cuban music for years and then got into the organ when I was around 20. I love funky grooves and especially when they get really heavy but i find the chords that support funky music to be especially awesome and great to learn how to play the piano more like a drum. for me at least. Thank you!

[@karlismusik]

You’re welcome and thank you. Like James Brown said, I’m funk every instrument is a drum and I believe that to be true. I’m so glad you find my tutorials helpful. Let’s get it
