Displaying all reviews (5)I found this to be an excellent arrangement of one of my favorite tunes. I'm having to work a bit to master it but enjoying it.
Musicnotes Customer
Decent basic version. bummed it didn’t have the instrumental bridge.

i got a lyric chart with better chords off the internet...but i was lazy and did not want to transpose the solo so i though wow, Music notes...well the solo is not in it...so if you need it...forget it it isnt there. the chords are written notewise into the arrangement but they are not written in chord form i.e. am7(9) ....just into the bass clef or treble clef....this was a waste of my money.

First, imagine a candy factory that makes such things as brandy balls and other confections infused with French liqueurs.
Picture a long assembly line with dots of chocolate moving endlessly along the conveyor.
Imagine now, standing at the head of the chocolate conveyor, a slim young lad wearing track clothes and a brand new pair of Nike Air running shoes.
Hes holding in his right hand an old Windex spray bottle filled with a watered down brandy flavoring concoction.
Every five minutes he runs the length of the conveyor while squeezing a mist of brandy flavoring over the parading chocolates. The mist settles gently, randomly; a hint of liqueur rather than an infusion.
Those scenes remind me of the 7 page score for SAILING by Christopher Cross which I purchased. At best, its a hint at the original.
My mistake. I learned a lesson.
