I’m really learning a lot from your videos. I do have a request, though. When you demonstrate licks - I’m currently working on your version of “Great Balls of Fire” - would it be possible for you to show which beats the notes fall on? I know this sounds lame, but my right-left hand independence is not that great, and when the left hand is doing a relatively complicated boogie-woogie pattern, I have a difficult time synchronizing the right hand lick with the left hand pattern. I especially like your C7 “rolliing chord” lick in the solo, but I’m having trouble duplicating it on my own without knowing how to count it out. It would really help me a lot! Thanks again for all the great stuff and hope you’re feeling better! Hi Chris,

All the best wishes and keep on learning. Gary R Hi,
Not being funny but the bass line is paramount to the rythm of boogie and the secret is to successfully marry up the right hand improvisations with a rock steady left hand.

All the best wishes and keep on learning.

I now see that it's just licks and chords from other blogs. Also, I have a little problem with glissandos. I have one of those pianos that is hard to press down on and it hurts and sounds really messy. Any tips? Thanks -J.T. I was reffering to the one you played.
