I Can’t help Falling in Love (Swing Version)

[willymac]

Andrew,
Here’s my attempt at a swing version of “I Can’t Help Falling in Love. I’m not sure what to do with the measures with 16th notes and triplets, so I just left those as they were. I think it works better the wY AJ arranged it, without swinging the eigths. Oh well, I had fun doing it and learned a little about swing. Woo hoo!
Cheers,
Brian

I actually think that sounds really cool. For the 2nd half of bar 6, change the rhythms to:

3 & Triplet (8th note trip)

That will make it perfect 🙂
