"Work 'n' Play"

Backdated, archival post

---&---


Yester-day, I played along to the four Zombies songs that use twelve-string guitar, and I learned the ending part of "Work 'n' Play."  It's just arpeggios, so I feel like I should have figured it out earlier.

This recording isn't the best (my piano playing, which I'm not sure is all that accurate, is sloppy [as always], the end gets more and more out-of-sync the longer it goes on because the original fades out so I had problems keeping in time with it, and I accidentally hit the open A string in the guitar part), but the last version of "Work 'n' Play" I did (almost a year ago) wasn't even with the correct instruments, so this is some improvement at least.
