    Is there a jam track for this at a slower tempo? 90 is still a bit quick for me.

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

    Try measure 3 on its own at half tempo, and keep your right hand rolling even when the left hand is behind. The right hand is the metronome.

    Welcome aboard — you picked a good one to start on.

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

    Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.
