<p>No problem, Nick. Sometimes I need a kick rather than a shove!</p>
<p>I just spent 30min on the front porch playing this. Still not quite sure about some of those 8th-note (quaver) arpeggios. The video of Clarke playing doesn't really show those spots very clearly but it looks like I have them written out pretty closely to what he is doing. They're a bit awkward...but the reality is that they simply just take practice!</p>

<p>M32 was missing its triplet markings.</p>
<p>Not too bad. I've seen much worse printer's errors.</p>
<p>Aaack. I missed the accent marks in M62-64. I'll fix for the next upload.</p>
