"Care of Cell 44"

Backdated, archival post

---&---


In order to drown out the noise of trick or treaters last night, I started playing piano with my headphones plugged in.  (I need all the practise I can get as far as piano goes.)

In any case, I learned (albeit roughly) the first part of "Care of Cell 44."  The longer it goes on, the less confident I am in its accuracy.  I'm pretty sure the opening figure is correct, and I'm fairly certain that the chords are right for the antecedent, but I don't have much confidence at all in the consequent, particularly the part during "hoping you're OK," which is somehow fitting.

I had no way to do this on tack piano (or even a fake tack piano), so regular fake piano was the best I could do.
