Ah yes, Layla outro was one I had to learn too. It's just one that once you have started playing this instrument and you hear that song you will immediately set your sights on learning it.

Another fun one to learn is Imagine.. It's pretty straight forward, and it doesn't' take half a year to learn..

As I mentioned, I was really interested in learning classical pieces. The one piece that solved a lot of my left/right hand independence was learning Moonlight Sonata. Took me a solid 4 months to learn that piece, and still if I don't play it at least a few times a week, I can't execute all the changes, madness.. Fur Elise is fun, but there's a half tone scale run towards the end will take you some time to figure out, (it's all in the fingering..) I've wanted forever, to finish the Pathetique Sonata, but I've just run out of steam for that one, some very complex stuff there,, Ludwig was the man!

Rock and Roll is WAY easier to pull off!! :)

G clef, of course, but the C clef is going to be pretty worthless on a keyboard, unless you attempt to play song lines. The normal bass clef is F and much more of an "of course".

I hate keyboards. You're just pressing buttons. It's not like a piano, where you're pulling a tone out physically. Oh well.
