Adam: I thought both worked but also wasn't sure if the hyphen was a typo or intentional. Either way, both sound great, thanks for the arrangement! Nice collection building up now :)
Manus_McShane: Thanks for noticing, I tried a few variations, but its probably best just to have it straight on the 3 beat.
Adam: Fantastic arrangement! Quick question, I noticed that for chords in bar 7 you used, "D-A7-" Did you want the A7 on the E where it is now, or the A on beat 3?
