So often, this is played as fast as can be seemingly just so the performer can show his/her dexterity.
So if you've got a good set of headphones or a great speaker system on you computer, crank this one up. And while it's playing, read some of the comments, especially about half way down the page. Some of them are pretty good.
This is excellent, first class. While I listen to Nirvana, Led Zeppelin, etc., I appreciate such things. Thanks so much for posting - I enjoyed it.
