    Anybody have a tip for the left hand stretch in here? My pinky is not cooperating.

    Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

    Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.
