Now I'm trying to record a solo piano piece... I've had more takes than an MP with a second home.

1 little mistake... 1 note hit too softly or too hard or mistimed and it's back to the start. mad

Oh yeah!

Solo stuff like that is a real pain.

Can you mess about with it in post?

Back in my day, we were still editing with 2 inch Ampex, a razor blade and a bit of sticky tape hehe

I think I might have to find some editing software and record it one bar at a time. nuts

Nah, I can do it in a handful of parts, I guess.

George Michael records his songs one word at a time. Now that is some hardcore editing!
