Im a keyboard player and while I didnt expect a full transcription of all solos, I did at LEAST hope for sheet music with an accurate form for reference. This version is missing a huge chunk of the intro AND the entire middle keys solo thats in 7. Without a full preview and it only being 7 pages, I guessed this wouldnt include transcriptions of the solos, but theres not even an indication of the missing sections in this sheet music. It just skips over them. Yes, you get the intro riff and the basic chords, and for some people I guess thats worth 1.5 stars, but thats about as deep as this gets. If you want accurate form and solo transcriptions, keep looking.
