That was one heck of a fine job. Some don't like this tune, but it is one of my favorites.

Sounds fantastic. Mine hardly resembles it, due to speed. This is one song that I MUCH prefer faster, like how you played it. Great job! Mike

Thanks for the encouragement, guys! I'm quite pleased with how this one turned out, even though it's still not quite there. This is definitely one of my favourites too, and I agree it needs to be up to speed or it just doesn't sound right.
