Hey Rick.  A while back I was bemoaning my inability to get the side to side tongue flutter and was feeling resigned to never getting it.  You encouraged me not to give up.  Well,...

Hi Bill, you're correct - many notes are not only notes. In my mind, a more accurate description might be syllables - though even that isn't a perfect description. But yeah, when...

Thanks Boyd - It gets easier with some practice.

Man, I feel like I could study this one piece for the rest of my life.  It's so cool how every verse has something new and one or two things that repeat but with some little...
