Brown Eyed Girl, a standard Duelling Piano tune, played by Rick and Dorothy
by Rick Potvin
Brown Eyed Girl is a standard rock tune at duelling piano bars around the world.. Here's D and me trying that tune for the first time.
Many of our piano students involve a couple of siblings--- a brother and sister, or two brothers... etc. and everytime we play two pianos or keyboard together for them, they automatically want to learn how to do that. So I know for a fact there is a future in two piano gigs.
