Summary: Simple to a point.....
Comment: I saw the piano guy on pbs and since I had been dinking around with a casio keyboard, I thought maybe I should try his book and cd. I can read music since I had played trumpet in h.s. 45 yrs ago. I already knew that piano would not be easy. The best thing about Scott's book and talk is that it motivated me to try to play. Although he continually tries to simplify by pointing out lead sheets and learning a favorite song, you still have to learn those chords. So, you can only simplify to a point. I got a chord finder as suggested in his book and it's a big help. I also got 2 fake books and Hal Leonard's EKM Complete Instruction Course (It also has chord charts). Yeah, you can pick any song to try and learn, but I found it was much easier to pick one with 5 or fewer chords to start. That's a disadvantage of not learning to read the bass clef--You have to remember the chords to play at tempo. However, the piano guy does try to get you motivated and without that, you'll never even try.

Summary: You really can learn how to play in a short time!
Comment: Piano in a flash works. I myself sponsor and teach seminars like this all the time. If you're in the Michigan area and would like to find a seminar on how to play piano, check out my website and order some materials!

p.s. This is the real material that Scott uses at all of his seminars. Ask him. Who do you think taught Scott Houston?

Summary: don't get this book
Comment: i haven't myself read this book, but i don't suggest buying it. i've been playing piano for less than a year and i can play some pretty hard stuff. moonlight sonata, fur elise are some of the pieces i know. if you want to learn how to play piano...get lessons. its not very difficult to learn if you practice. don't expect to be playing like a pro if you buy some lame book from a lame guy. don't waste your money.
