This review is from: It's Easy To Play Blues (Paperback)

Fifteen years ago, I heard a friend play a song from this book. "Moaning," I think it was. "Whoa," I said, "you gotta teach me that!" He handed me this book, and ten minutes later I was playing it. That's no reflection on me because (trust me) I was and still am a mediocre piano player. My favorite is the last song in the book, "Worried Man Blues." Took me a while to get it down, but it's beautiful. If you're a real musician, this book probably won't do the job. But if you're an amateur like me, if you can read music, count time, and play a bit more than chords with your left hand, then you'll be able to play the songs in this book. I wish my piano teacher had given me this book. I might have practiced.
