Re: 99 Year Waltz

If you paint the Mona Lisa on your first try, then your subsequent efforts will likely disappoint.

The "hard act to follow" should not be your own!

Re: 99 Year Waltz

Okay, at John's & Ned's prodding here it is without triplets, embellishments, or the sort, and a left hand which flops around on its own. Thanks for your encouragement . . .

Re: 99 Year Waltz

Don'cha feel better now? You got the basic line, now you can build from it!

Re: 99 Year Waltz

Right on, Larry! That's what it's about. Doin' it and puttin' it out there. Good on ya. Your time is pretty good and you're almost there with the left hand. It'll happen so just keep at it.

Like Ned said, you got the basic line. Tighten that up and don't worry about all the trimmin's. Some of the prettiest versions are really simply played.
