Thanks John, it thats how you played maybe I'm on the right track. I'm not as clean as I want to be, but surprisingly or not, cleaner before I hit the record button... I think I suffer from performance anxiety :(

Sounds good Dale, a little smoothing out and it's perfect. Nicely done.

Thanks Larry, yes I was a few bpm too fast for me, and you can't believe how many thoughts I can get between two notes, even notes that are very close together. And then there's that confounded record button that really throws everything a kilter :wink:

Thanks Samuel, but you still have to try it to know. None of us is where we want to be, and I'm certainly not... these are as much a snapshot of where I was 'then" as anything else... so give it a shot.
