## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    GREAT book for aspiring R&B composers and keyboardist.
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2007*

I wouldn't recomend this book for those without a solid knowledge of theory or notation but for those who have a moderate knowledge of both shouldn't hesitate to purchase this book. The aurthor breaks down the information into sections starting with the basics such as chord voicings, common R&B chord types, and rythms. The accompnying cd also does a good job of illustrating the concepts aurally and does so with well known artist and songs from the different era's of R&B.The era's from the 50's until today are covered and the piano arrangments are broken down into rhythm, chord type, and are all notated. Later in the book the aurthor brings everything together and breaks down whole tracks into sections (song structure) all the while explaining the contruction of the song (including other instruments). The cd presents all of these songs in an easy to understand fashion and further fleshes out the descriptions.Fully recomended for any aspiring musician or composer who wants further knowledge in the genre of R&B.

    Have Three of Mark's Books and Will be Ordering More
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2013*

I am really impressed with the quality of Mark's teaching material and will be ordering his theory books also. It's quality content at a reasonable price. I'm going through his blues piano book now. It's great too.

    Very competent but does not go far enough
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2007*

Mark Harrison is one of the best teachers in keyboard style methods, perhaps even the best.  His approach is always logical, playable and error free.  Above all he explores styles quite deeply.  This is far more than most other self-teaching approaches.  Most books you get out there are shabby interpretations that are not researched, poorly fingered and don't touch on many aspects of the real thing.In this book Harrison takes you through a lot of styles and unpacks them so logically that you can see where all the periods or R&B history fit in.  Styles such as Memphis Soul and Neo Soul are presented so you understand them.However, I think in this book Mark Harrison often doesn't go far enough - the book is still basic, even if it is streets ahead of other method books.  The style examples of Green Onions and Alicia Keys "Woman's Worth" are too basic.  The originals are alive with feeling but the teaching arrangements seem to miss this.  Also there isn't a deep enough exploration of each style - is Memphis Soul summarized in a half a dozen examples?Also the range of the keyboard is limited in the book; perhaps for teaching purposes (I think Mark does this in some other books as well).  This leaves me wanting to know more - do all R&B keyboard players always play these simple chord structures in the middle of the piano, or do they use the range and chord voicings in more interesting and expanded ways? I want to get more out of R&B piano and play it like the best.I found the CD examples to be very dry and bland, although their accuracy is perfect.  I would expect a superior rendition of the tracks with a decent recording ambience. After all I am trying to learn to play R&B in the most musical way possible.  You need to rock or be tender to do that - it is missing from the CD and I feel that an important part of the teaching is therefore lost.Other teaching books either present far too difficult and unstructured material and they end up on the bookshelf.  Harrison's book and this particular one never have that problem - he really understands popular keyboards, probably better than anyone else.  I do recommend this book to intermediate players, but it would be great if Mark added the extra level of keyboard mastery - some advanced techniques and voicing's, and a better CD.
