Displaying all reviews (2)I liked this sheet music. It helped me learn this song.
despecrawf
The initial notes look okay, but after just a few bars I see this is simply not what Graham, (or possibly Stone himself), played. With this I do not mean that there are frequent errors, but rather someone who wrote down whatever could pass as a bass line.
To call this the sheet music of this song is simply fraudulent. Please refund me!
