Cool wine tasting, nice Hagstrøm on the wall (I've got the same in black 1968).

Cheers - Wolfgang

Danke Wolfgang :-)

Nice version, but there's an easier way of playing that opening phrase, Roland!

Form your left hand fingers up on a Bmaj7 chord instead of a Cmaj7, and then slide the hand up one fret after striking the first note (B), playing the rest of the phrase as an arpeggio with a hammer-on for the top C. It really works!

Hi Jim
Thanks for the tip, really works :-)
The other way of playing is now automated for me.
Let's see if I can take it away and take over your tip. In fact it "swings" better ;-)
Stay healthy my friend!
Best wishes, Roland
