Nice arrangement!

Ive been "hooked" on this song since the early 1980s, but never had the opportunity to buy it until the "Lake Shore Drive at 25" CD was released in 1997. Have been struggling to learn to play it ever since, as its a somewhat complex piece (even *with* the sheet music; more so without it). The piano part is *highly* accurate (as far as I can tell, playing along with the sheet music while listening to the CD track), as well as the melody (and harmony), lyrics, and "bass" line (not sure if its supposed to be just the bass, piano left hand, or both, so I used it for both, lol). My only "notes" (pun intended, lol) are that a) the listed tempo is *slightly* faster than the performance on the CD track (which seems to be 93bpm), and that while inclusion of the lyrics for the 2nd and 3rd verse on the last page is useful, this sheet music arrangement consequently doesnt reflect the specific notes/timing of same. However, as I based my own performance on the "feel" of the melody/harmony from the CD track, Im not rating this down. My difficulty rating of "4" is somewhat of a guesstimate, as it seems to be "more difficult than average", but (very) likely less difficult than some other music (especially more classical orchestra/piano works). To make a long story short (too late! lol), very pleased with this arrangement, and highly recommended for anyone that wants to learn to play this.
