Hand over hand ? I Dunno, that's why I posed the question. I seem to remember reading it somewhere. I do it on the same manual (well, I've only got one). If you hold hands just right, one kind of behind the other actually, I think it's possible. Thanks for the chords on the climb up climb up, I'll try it.

Whoah!! The triplets were hand over hand? I didn't know that. I
thought dude just had a phneumatic jackhammer right hand and did all
that one handed. Hey, I don't feel so bad now. Maybe I can try that
part myself with some degree of success. I had pretty much given up
on the triplets. Was that one hand on each manual or both hands
right on top of each other banging out the same chord. That must be
hard to do. Something I've never tried before.

Not sure if this is 100% correct, but what I use is:

Bb maj (2nd inversion) - C maj (2nd inversion), then climb up and
repeat it, Bb maj (root position) - C maj (root position); climb up
again and, F maj (2nd inversion)...though something on the last chord
sounds very "suspended fourth-ish" to me, but I can't quite figure it
out. What I described is a close substitute. If you can find where
the sus4 sound is coming from on the last chord of triplets, I'm all
ears...I've been trying to figure that out for awhile.
