Brilliant! I love how you bring these "difficult" songs down to earth. I've been performing in public for 50 years, and you still give me inspiration! Keep up the great work, brother!
Hi Frank. The Strat sounded great on this, I wonder if an electric guitar is actually the better choice for piano songs, certainly with the extra complexity of a song like this (i.e. smoother sound, better dynamics and more sustain).?
Very cool stuff, Frank'ster Thanks Boss.. Wow Billy F@(#!n Joel. Can write some Awesome songs. But man I do not like this guy.. (of course I'm speaking only for myself here) But.. To me "Billy Joel" is pretty much the same type of guy as, Don Henley and Glenn Frye of the Eagles... Absolute unlikable Jerks; who can write good songs. In my opinion. Anyway Thanks Frank you are appreciated
That he can!! Really? I can see why wi to Henley but Billy always seemed very down to earth and approachable from what I’ve seen and from account of people I know who know him. Lol maybe it’s his NY delivery throwing u off lol. But if that was the case you would not like me hahaha… cheers and thanks for commenting
@@FrankPersico Ohhh Sure Frank you New Yorkers got to stick together LOL. Yes Boss; and of course I don't know Him or Them personally. (Joel or Henley or Frye) I am just going off of What his old band mates say ant the story they tell. Never met Billy. But years ago; I spent a couple nights back stage with the Eagles, And I made my opinion about them there and then. On the other hand none of the people I mentioned, Have denied any of these climes made by band mates or associates. I tend to believe the bandmates.. Just Say'n. Anyway most of it is here-say. And It's just an opinion from somebody (me) who's opinion doesn't matter anyway. .. Thanks for the lesson Frankie .
From my tip jar to yours🙂
Dude thanks for the super thanks!! Greatly appreciated!

Wow, thank you!
Great tune. I call these kind of chord progressions “Ray Charles Changes”. Love playing them.
Yeah almost like a gospel type sound
Nice lesson Frank! Thank you for sharing! Pretty song. Maybe add this one to my repertoire 🤔...
You got it! Hope you enjoy it.
LOVE THIS VERSION !! You'll make me look good !
Enjoy!
Wow nicely done, way above my paygrade lol.
Thanks! I'm sure with some practice you could get there!
Great video Frank! I always wanted to play this one but I thought It would be hard to translate it to guitar. Boy was I wrong. Thanks!
Happy to hear this!! Yeah it’s totally doable
Hey Frank. You should check out the K9. By electro Harmonix.
Ok cool I’ll look into it

You can get away with either but sometimes I do prefer the electric for something like this . But I’m usually too lazy to bring it out to a gig lol
I’m going to come wensday if you’re still playing the Salt dog on wensday
I’ll be there!
