AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH NO.

You may summon the Dark Beast, and that is NOT a good thing. If you live near me, I may hunt you down and kill you if I hear it.

Robbie Williams is the most despicable human being on this planet.

Other than that, the advice in that post is sound.

The post implied that he's not really past the level of bashing chords yet.

Well there's only one way to get past that level.

Yes, but that wasn't the request.

I can see where both of your are coming from in this regard.

There's got to be some less chord based piano music that is still simple and effective.

The only name I can think of that comes to mind is Erik Satie.  If you can transcribre by ear, that'd be great.  Otherwise find the sheet music from the Trois Gymnopedies or the Trois Morceaux.  Most of Satie's work is fairly minimalistic, but still has a great sound to it.  I would recommend that and others similar.

Soidanae:
I heard Satie played by another student of my voice teacher, so finding his music should be fairly simple.

And I wasn't clear in my first post--Not only would my guitar playing be primarily for me, it is also nigh-non-existent.

However, I've checked out a few of the songs you folks have reccomende,d and they sound like I should be able to learn them.
