I like how some of these junkshop glam records emphasize piano and it sounds like a real old fashioned piano. The small rock n roll keyboards don't engage me as much.
Although I was surprised with what Tony MacAlpine can do on one of those. Amazing!

Good point. New York Dolls' "Personality Crisis" also has old fashioned boogie woogie piano playing the background - something I always liked in that song.

Basically, Don/Kitten's gear is in heat😸🤖😵‍💫
  3:47pm
Kittimu:

One time I sent someone a link to Personality Crisis and he said it had "too much piano" and I was like, what do you MEAN "too much"?!
Avatar 3:48pm
Debbie Davenport:

↳ Mr. Oxford @3:46
As a small child I learned on an old piano that hsd ivory keys. It feels amazing to hands and it felt to me like I had to hit them hard. I've tried newer pianos and it's not as enjoyable to me. It would be a good thing to force myself to do though. Piano is so cool and versatile.
Avatar 3:49pm
Debbie Davenport:

I think learning some kind of instruments is good for everyone.
  3:49pm
Kittimu:

Man, I haven't played piano in almost five years. I'm thinking of re-learning though just cause guitar players are kind of a dime a dozen so I should be versatile.
Avatar 3:50pm
Debbie Davenport:

OH I said that all tangled. sorry chat friends. I'm sleepy, stoned and coffeed up all at once.
When I took guitar lessons it was pointed out to me that it was like piano.
Learning piano helped me in typing classes.

Debbie Davenport:

↳ Cheree July @3:52
We appreciate you guys entertaining us in that state.
  3:53pm
Kittimu:

I definitely think piano makes it easier to learn to read music properly. I can't read music when I'm playing guitar cause there's too much going on
  3:53pm
Cheree July:

We appreciate that we can entertain the #glittergang in a similar state too.

↳ Kittimu @3:53
I don't know if you listen to harder kinds of punk rock but check out some of the poison Idea out there if you are thiking of piano in rock. Soooo good. Hangover Heartattack and "Feel The Darkness'. Those are my two favorite songs of theirs that emphasize piano.
  3:58pm
Kittimu:

I guess depends on how hard the punk rock is, I'll check it out though
  3:58pm
Cheree July:

Really? Poison Idea had piano in their songs?!🤔🎹
Avatar 4:00pm
Debbie Davenport:

↳ Cheree July @3:58
Yeah. Pig Champion was an acomplished piano player. I can't remember if Slayer HIppy played piano though. That whole Feel The Darkness album is very good. often overlooked.

Erik Olson, maybe he did some too. he's really good.

vegetable played that piano piece on the "war all the time" lp

I would never think piano & Poison Idea would go together.
Avatar 4:04pm
Debbie Davenport:

oh god, I might be wrong about hangover heart attack. I'm listening to it right now I rmemeber thinking it was the first punk song I wanted to redo on piano (gordon had been talking about me getting one years back) It would translate so well!!! But feel the darkness is one of their lps with piano

Mr. Oxford:

↳ Debbie Davenport @3:48
I know what you mean! I played piano when I was in high school and I played on an electric piano, more modern upright piano and a very old concert piano which we had at school. Playing the old concert piano was my favourite of the three. Playing on it gave my fingers a certain gentle feel which I loved.
Avatar 4:16pm
Mr. Oxford:

↳ Kittimu @3:53
Definitely. In addition to sheet music reading, piano also makes it easier to learn music theory. I started to piano and then moved on to guitar. I don't think I would have learned basic music theory if I had started with the guitar.
  4:18pm
Cheree July:

Mr. Oxford, I played piano in High School too! I started when I was 16.
Avatar 4:20pm
Debbie Davenport:

↳ Mr. Oxford @4:14
💖 When we saw Tony MacAlpine in concert he somehow made one of those small electric rock pianos sound like a big old fashioned one. He really did some impressive classical music. He wrapped blankets around the stand, so that could of been part of it. I can't imagine it would have that same sensation to the hands though.
I had a converted player piano. And for a short time a miniture organ.
Avatar 4:21pm
Mr. Oxford:

↳ Cheree July @4:18
Sweet! I started when I was 14. High school sucked but being a piano player and singer made those years a lil' less awkward for me. Hope you still play piano, Cheree!
Avatar 4:23pm
Mr. Oxford:

↳ Debbie Davenport @4:20
Yeah, I think talented players can make electric rock pianos suitable for even classical music. But I agree that the feel on fingers just isn't the same. Miniature organ sounds interesting! What was it like to play it?
  4:26pm
Cheree July:

I was playing a Wurlitzer electric piano at a party I was at not too long ago.

↳ Cheree July @4:26

It was at an after, after party for the Meditations On Crime Album & Book at Harper Simon's loft. I was playing on the electric Wurlitizer with Ariel Pink & a friend of his.

Debbie Davenport:

↳ Mr. Oxford @4:23
I was only in 2nd grade. so my memory is hazy. I was frustrated with my mother for buying me a toy when I had already been stretching my hands and learning to read music since 3 1/2. At 6 1/2 I could finally reach all five keys at once. This one was so tiny I felt like it was for babies. I put stickers on it and played with the buttons that said disco and stuff. I couldn't even fit under it to sit.
I would have a total appreciation for it now though. it was very detailed.

Playing a Wurlitzer electric piano is one thing. Playing a Wurlitzer electric piano with Ariel Pink....is a whole other wild thing.
Avatar 4:40pm
Mr. Oxford:

↳ Debbie Davenport @4:34
oh I can imagine how one can appreciate it now. I was given a toy keyboard of sorts when I was 16 and I didn't like that at all because I was a hoity toity piano player. Years later, I would dream of it because I realized toy keyboards can make wonderfully eccentric sounds.
  4:41pm
Cheree July:

Indeed. There were a lot of people chatting, so it was hard for us to hear ourselves playing.
