Feelin' Alright (Joe Cocker) - Part 1

thepianopro.com
Make no mistake about it, funk can be a little tricky to learn, but once you get used to the interplay of your two hands (kinda like playing the conga only you're using a keyboard) it is a whole heaping helping of fun.
The best part is that funk grooves are used in gospel, country and rock too, reggae, soul, and R & B!
I remember years ago, a country duo called The Kendalls used a clavinet sound in several of their hit songs( "Heaven's Just A Sin Away" for example) and the syncopated sounds were very similar to funk patterns.
In part 1, I cover just the intro, but the good thing is that the intro is the basis for the verse. You are basically alternating between a C9 and an F7 chord.
A transcript will be available with the last video.

Hi from Italy and My Best congratulations for your exhibition.
Can i ask You The pdf sheet if is possible? Sorry for My english

[@beatapt5]

I think that you should count and not listen to the vocal, or blank it out of your head. Difficult timing. But absolutely killer track!

[@MartinGureasko]

I had to ignore the vocal as best I could as I was learning these licks.
