Ok, I'd like to play you some of Siberian Catru from Yes.
I'm just going to play it slowly, so playing slowly I'm going to make some mistakes, but
I reckon if you're going to try and play this tune you probably are good enough to hear
my mistakes and cut through [G] them, ok?
So I'll just play the song excruciatingly slowly, ok?
So here, mistakes and all.
