That’s the great thing about music, there’s always something out there to learn.

Fantastic thanks for posting.

If I would change one thing it would be the sound choice on the keyboard . Maybe something with more tone variation with the velocity he plays. Sort of like "spanking" some notes on a Rhoads.
OK I'm being too picky, his playing is great, later in the studio I'm going to listen again and try to learn somthing.

Nice! I tried it and it's a lot easier than it seems. I can play some basic funk now smile

Thats also because he really explains so well what he is doing in the video..
But it requires you to be competent in left hand, a step beyound lefthandchord arranger playing.

Its still took me quite a few hours of excersising to get the first part at an acceptable level..
