Very good feel and a nice punchy sound that I like. Keep up the good work!

Hi Matty,
thoroughly enjoyed your version. Interesting choice of style.

Do you you actually have the pedal board for changing variations, fills etc?

Amazed how you keep track, with the button pressing PLUS turning the pages.

I recently started putting my sheet music onto my ipad, plus I bought a special bluetooth pedal to turn the pages because I tended to get lost if I I took my hands off the keyboard.
( old age haahaa)

Well done.

Maybe it's time to ditch the sheet music? Doesn't hurt to try...

Try playing along with the Stones' version. Not with the full arranger, just the melody. It's under your fingers, you just need the right mood to get up to speed. Nothing like playing with the boys!

Nothing like a great band kicking your **** to get you up to speed!

If you can't QUITE pull it off at full speed, try one of the many programs that will slow down audio without changing pitch (I like Amazing Slowdowner) and pull the tempo down as little as possible. Then gradually bring it back to full speed...

The way you finger things at speed is quite different to your hand motion when doing things slowly. Honestly, it's better to struggle with full speed (or close to it) than spend too much time learning something at a WAY lower speed. Just a bit to get the notes right, then try as fast as you can, as soon as you can..!

Interesting, Diki ... when I was studying accordion it was always "learn it slow, with no mistakes, then pick up the speed" ...
In his Middle School band this year, our grandson had to learn a song slowly, and then the band had to play it as fast as they could - with no mistakes - in a competition against the other groups in the 7th grade ... his group won ...
