The song "I Love You" by Climax Blues Band is an iconic yacht rock classic. People who know me love that yacht rock has become my favorite music to listen to. Songs like this just take me back to everything that was great about growing up in the 80s.

"Open Arms" by Journey is such a beautiful song with an iconic piano intro played by Jonathan Cain. It was actually a little trickier than I thought it would be to learn this just the way he plays it. Hope you like it!

"Don't Stop" by Fleetwood Mac is a song that takes me back to my childhood. I always loved this song and the piano part, played by the legendary Christine McVie. Here's the intro!
