I've always admired pianists who set about to attempt the almost impossible task of recreating styles of others. A now deceased friend of mine near Manchester UK spent a large part of his life doing the same. You have made a lovely job of this actually. I realise it's difficult not to sound a bit mechanical reading but 10/10.

This is really well done. Very faithful, indeed. Garner's technique on this song is great, especially the left-hand comp rhythm during the solo. The syncopation splits the player's mind in two... ;-)
