Thanks again for your help!

"Nice", eh? OK, here's some playing around with LinuxSampler and the PMI samples:

It's very much out of my usual style. It's ballad, and a cover of a cheesy 1980's hit by a band called The Church.

I'm taking piano lessons (which I've never had-- I took organ lessons as a kid), and learning how to play ballads, so here's some practice at that.

I figured something diatonic with lots of major chords might be a welcome relief after you had to sit through my chromatic stuff. Enjoy.

Because it's a cover, I might not leave it posted for very long. Also, it's pretty rough and I hope to be able to do better in the future.
