Mark, that was great but I would have liked to see you playing it since I had already heard Lenny's original soundtrack many times in the past and had something to compare it to. Tommy Jones used to tell me often "You can learn a lot by watching". Some people make it look like work but you sound smooth enough that it most likely wouldn't appear that way. Thanks for the post.

Amazing! I didn't think anybody could cover Lenny's music but Mark Hill surely does. It was close to what I remember from one of the RCA albums except he didn't do the ending like Lenny where he hits an open low E and then vamps into a bossa nova like chorus of great single note runs punctuated with chord fragments the way he could. I always wanted to duplicate that run but would need tab to even have a chance at it.
