Customer Reviews of VHS-Dr. John Teaches New Orleans Piano, Vol. 1
Good Stuff This is only an "instructional video" in the loosest of terms. Yes, there is a good overhead view of his hands playing the piano, but not a lot of advice is offered on how to develop the chops needed to play these pieces. There is not as much isolation of one hand, in slow motion, as there should be. It goes too fast. My only other gripe is that this video is too expensive. ....
Having said that, I greatly enjoyed watching the man play the piano. He also offers a very interesting history of this type of music, as he speaks fondly of guys like Professor Longhair, Fats Domino, and many others.
This video was made in 1988, and there is a volume two to this set. If you have a VCR that can play in slow motion, you will really derive a lot of benefit from it. Also, you should buy the finger exercises for boogie, Hanon's Boogie. It is available on Amazon.
the real stuff
if you want to play the piano like the great louisiana professors of the past, stop! this is one of the deepest and best studies available at any price. mac is the best
