Steve:
Sound clip for this would be handy for us beginners, if at all possible.

Have to agree with you, Bobby does a fantastic job on this piece.

Sorry I can't help you out with a sound clip, Graham. I don't have any MIDIs or MAXIs or WAVs or even a sound card in my PC. This is a problem for me, too, in trying to hear some of the clips on yours and Ricky's site.

I might suggest that you take a listen to the CD, and just work on the 1st verse (dispense with the Intro for now). In the first line, you're basically sliding from the 6 open, to the 4AF (A pedal/4th raise), then down to the 2AF (A pedal/2nd raise), and then noodling around between the 1A and the 2AF, ending on the 2AF. Second line is similar, but with strings 5&8 instead of 4&5. The first 4 notes on each line are from standard grip positions. Third line kind of repeats the 1st, etc.

No substitute for sound, but I hope this helps.

Hey Steve it looks good; but I never get the D;or E or F levers right; so I personally put (L)>lower or (R)>raise on the string and the folks can figure out which knee lever does the trick. I understand what you got up there but some may not understand what letter their knee lever might be. That would be my only suggestion; otherwise looks great.
