Beverly hills cop - first take

After spending some time memorizing the fingering from the arrangement that @saundersbp shared with me, I practiced for about 20 minutes.
Great stuff, it's a very hard one rhythmically as so much doesn't fall on the beat, hence the funky feel! I detest metronomes but this is one occasion I'd get one going and set it on it's lowest possible setting and work up from there. Sounds great when you've got it but quite a challenge to play it right. Good luck as very few people will be able to get this one!

Do you have a video of yourself playing it? With the gradual speed up, it's sounding better and better. I can't wait to get this to actual tempo.
