I would definitely recommend this DVD to beginning keyboard players. In about 50 minutes, it shows you how to play and accompany yourself simply with a few basic chords. Dan Huckabee takes the new player through his paces one step at a time, making it easy and fun. He does stress that you will need to practice what he has shown you in this first hour. He bypasses the whole note reading thing in this DVD because it is not really necessary. He really strips away the complexities and shows the new player how to do it simply, and why. This is by no means the full regalia of rhythm piano, but it is what it says it is: Beginning Rhythm Piano, Volume 1. Volume 2 will present more tricks, but this definitely covers the basics.

This CD is everything it says - it is for beginners. If you have no knowledge of music or the piano, this DVD will serve you well. For those who have a basic knowledge of chords and chord progressions, save your money.

This was a total disappointment. I was looking for a basic instructional video for my son - simple pointers on hand position, review of the keyboard, etc... The video jumps right into watching the host sing and play a few chords.
