I promise you, you won't regret it, GITP.

Tim Richards is pretty solid on theory, but he introduces it gradually. Chapter one is based on triads and inversions, but these are all introduced with standard notation and inversions are noted. I've stopped formal lessons for a while to focus on this book. I feel as though my left hand is starting to think for itself and I have begun to feel in my fingers that I will be able to improvise.

I've also started the first two exercises in the Boogie-Woogie Hanon, but I'm really taking my time with it.

Book = Tim Richards' "Improvising Blues Piano"

Hi pastafarian;
This is a old message and I am just wondering how everything worked out with this book and you? Anyone else working thru it?

Thanks,
