I don't, unfortunately. Probably a good thing, though; the bassist missed a couple hits and I played the thing waay too fast!

Got it on vid or audio?I might attempt to learn this. Maybe after a year lol. I have no where near enough control of string crossings for the head.I could learn it if I really tried but it would take me quite a while. The rest I could probobly improvise. I'd rather wait until my technique improves in that area, then get a combo up and try this.

Update: learned it! I did a recital last spring where I played Ponty's arrangement but improvised the second solo- I only transcribed the first part. I definitely didn't end up using the visuals much, you're right. ;)

Are you kidding? You might as well try to learn it by ear. Its an awsome tune though, must take insane amounts of practice. I always found folksy tunes the hardest because of their ridiculous string crossings. You constantly have to change the string you're "thinking on" if you get my meaning. And all at insane speeds lol. Still it would be great if I could learn this.....would take forever though lol.

Is it me or did JLP fib the entrance in the beginning (offbeat)???

Agreed, saw him live in about 1985 at the Syracuse, NY civic center, I think the same drummer was with him, I still remember being blown away.
