I thought it was good too.

Now that you can play it stop trying to play it & just play it :D ("Stop trying to hit me and hit me!" - Lawrence Fishbourne, The Matrix)

Weird, I've been working on this too. I've made a few cuts but debating on putting one of them up.

Same format as Creeper Creeps Again, but varying speeds, some like the original, others more like the just the Creeper.

I'll get it up eventually.

Good job, the only thing missing is a backing band.

Would love to see other peoples progress on this. its a complicated song. and sort of difficult when you don't have a band.

Man, good job , I think you got something goin' but there is a little problem , fundamental one, you don't keep time . Play the video and start taping your foot , you will see that you are all over the place. a backing track will help you with that too. Again ,good job.

Sorin:

There's one spot around :38-39 where he loses the groove, but I think most listeners would say he does a pretty good job overall of holding to the groove.

Good job! I've loved Cotton's version of this--"Creeper Creeps Again," but also "The Creeper," which is the tempo of your version--for more than 30 years. Cotton's sound is exemplary; you've got some of it, but it's the difference between "pretty good" and "exactly right" that keeps us all practicing.....

Thanks everyone. I'll have to post another video sometime in the future of my progress.
