Great demo of how to play this old Narada Michael Walden classic. I loved this, excellent vid for those who would like to cop this one. Shame it's only 4 minutes.
This guy shows how it's possible to play quite a "busy" line whilst still totally relaxed and without losing any groove. The funk is in the ghost notes, baby! Nice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GZcX3vkrlA
Do you rate this or what?

I love the sig, by the way. Cockermouth is a great little town!
