    This is great man, your interpretation is fantastic, It would be incredible if you upload only the Sax and clarinet solos for now, because that’s the part I found very difficult to emulate in piano and you did it great. So please, Could you upload a tutorial of them? Thanks for your contributions man, they are an inspiration!

    Would there be any chance when you do your next batch of recordings to (instead of a tutorial) to film this from above so its easier to see the keys. Would be a great as fingers keep disappearing behind others and would make it easier to analyse. Thanks!!!! :)

    Absolutely incredible. part of my living is made by playing music and I can’t come close to playing this song. I also play drums…I’d love to be your drummer on this one. It’s my favorite Billy Joel song.

    Thanks, Kyle! We’ll see what happens on this song.. Maybe I could get some parts of it done just to start.

  18. Amazing rendition …
    Amazing rendition again John. Greatest piano player on youtube, by far. If you could do a tutorial on this one. Thanks for the news about it on your channel. There’s a glimmer of hope that you’ll do it now.

  19. Thanks, I’m glad …
    Thanks, I’m glad you liked it! If I can figure out a good way to teach this song on a video, I will post one up.. lots of improv, quick chords and notes, etc. make it a little tough for this song, though.

  20. thx for the comment …
    thx for the comment on the piano, really awesome sound!
    i’ve also been following your work for some time. you’re doing this so well… i never heard something so close to the original – pleeease please try to do the tutorial! for me only the solo part would be interesting, cause i found out the rest by my own.
    but i’ve been looking for years for the right way to play the solo – as you said, the songbooks you can buy are not correct in many ways :(

    anyway – thanks very much for all of your vids!

    if you can’t do it on the whole song, do you think you might be able to do one on just the little solo in the middle?
