Learning the Piano (teaching an old dog new tricks)

I bought this intro to piano book a few months ago, mostly because it was really cheap and I could get next day delivery for free, but I've found it really helpful. It goes at a pretty nice pace and isn't too difficult to follow either. Reading music has always been the hardest thing for me, I can play guitar but only with tabs or just by ear, and this book has helped quite a lot with that too.

I think there are 3 of these books in total, all have pretty good reviews on Amazon too.

Also, dunno if you've seen/heard of vkgoeswild on YouTube, but she has some really good rock/metal covers on piano which might act as some inspiration.
