Crazy Blues Piano Performance of Pinetops' 'Dive Bomber'

Enjoy this beautiful performance of Pinto's' "Dive Bomber" by Paddy Milner!
Paddy Milner is not only recognised as one of the leading blues piano players in the world (he is currently the keyboard player of choice for Sir Tom Jones, following several years with the late great Jack Bruce), but also as a superb original songwriter and distinctive singer. Just read the praise from the likes of Dave Brubeck! His playing was featured on the soundtrack for the hit 2019 film 'Rocketman'.

He has twice won the award for Best Keyboard Player in the British Blues Awards.
He holds a long-standing residency as a founder member of the Ronnie Scott's Blues Explosion at the world-renowned Ronnie Scott's club.

In this course, Paddy takes an in-depth look at Boogie Woogie style piano playing, specifically teaching you three iconic tunes from Pete Johnson, Meade Lux Lewis and Pinetop Smith. Paddy draws upon his extensive playing experience and research to break down the musical language characteristic of these legendary Boogie Woogie players.

In This Course
• Dive Bomber by Pete Jonson
• Honky Tonk Train Blues by Meade Lux Lewis
• Pinetop's Boogie Woogie by Pinetop Smith

As well as teaching you the style, the licks and the groove, Paddy provides plenty of encouragement for you to come up with your own ideas within Boogie Woogie.

This is my favourite boogie woogie track, have been listening to it for 30 years. He’s definitely nailed it on this performance. Absolutely brilliant.

Paddy is a great Piano player, but i don’t like this song. it has no concept. its more like a training session where some patterns glued together and repeat too often.
