Reviews
Displaying all reviews (4)I downloaded the song and was able to play it immediately. Sight reading is not my strong point! It was a very nice arrangement and pretty accurate to the recording. Im a professional musician and I play the song 5 to 6 times a week and always get compliments on the arrangement. It is well worth the investment.

This song is very complete and sounds exactly like the recorded version. I just play the guitar chords and it sounds very full.

An EXTREMELY hard piece to learn, personally I think - The chords are very big, constantly, so big hands are needed! And it's hard to figure out a rhythm i the chorus.
I learnt The Way It Is and mastered that perfectly WITH iprov. - it was a total success - But you think that piece is hard to learn? I think Mandolin Rain is harder! - Much trickier and is taking me much longer than The Way It Is did.
Best of luck with that one!
Otherwise - great sheet music - a fantastic song. Lots of potential for improv.

I transcribe music when I have the time and if there is no sheet music available just as a hobby and I really like this arrangement. It isnt spot on. I think too many notes in some of the chords makes it sounds very heavy; good for groups, but not so much for solo singing I think.
