[DigitalOutlaw247]

Hats off 2 u. This is an awesome cover of Rocky Raccoon. Nice work.

[onewomanandsomesongs]

Excellent cover, you're a really talented musician! I enjoyed the listen. Glad you found me through Jeff. And thanks for the sub. I'm returning the favor. :) Janet

[raffaport]

Hi, Janet. Thank you - that's much appreciated.

[kaknockitoff]

You are one bad singer... bad- meaning really GOOD! This is AMAZING!

[raffaport]

That's very kind - thank you. Just on my way to visit you. Regards.

[AndSch77]

Nice one!!! Is it a backing track you're playing with or did you record all instruments?

[raffaport]

Hi, Andy. Thanks for this. I just used a simple drum track off my keyboard and slowed it down a bit to suit the pace I wanted. The rest is just the guitar damped with the hand a bit to muffle it. Regards.

[Bidyyy]

VERY GREAT .....................thanks !!

[electricragtime]

Nice one Graham.....I like your take on this....and I like the hat even more ...my dad had one just like it (he was a cowboy builder)

[navim49]

Hey that's a good look Raffa. The mystery of the man with eyes hidden. But that voice is there and centre stage. That's a sweet sound you get out of them pipes!! Marc Bolan coming through on this. You've got it all my friend. A quality performance dripping with YT gold!!!!

I trust I'll see you at the picket line on Wednesday. Up the workers!!!!!!

[raffaport]

Hey, Nav. Thanks amundo and good luck tomorrow, Wolfie - power to the people!

Regards, The Man With No Name.

[acoustric1]

Thats ace raff man

[raffaport]

Hi, Acousters. Thanks very much for this.

[Leodorus]

That sounds really GREAT Graham!! Beautiful video too!

43 years ago! We're getting old, cowboy! :-)

[dogshome1000]

Great outing for Rocky, will it be making an outing with the uke ensemble.

[raffaport]

Ey up, Clive. Ta for this and yep it could appear at the Crooke in one form or other. Sithee soon.

[manincamper]

Graham, that's scarilly good. Think I like that best. Have to look that white album up. Must be before my time

[raffaport]

Hello camperman (remember Cooperman?); thanks for this. White Album before your time, eh? ... but not ration coupons, methinks ... Sithee tomoz..

[TheHawthorne2]

Great hat (mysteriously keeping eyes out of view) and best cover of this song in many a long while. Song choice excellent as ever and delivery as only Sir Raff can do it. Top stuff! Les Hawthes

[raffaport]

Thanks very much, Hawthers Two - very much appreciated. The full frontal may well appear some time in 2012.

Kind regards, R.

[michelina411]

Great cover......can't go wrong with Beatles!

[raffaport]

Hi, both. Thanks very much and hope you are well.

[ruskin51]

Brilliant production. Great singing and playing, really enjoyed it. I too remember the White Album coming out and listening to it over and over. What about Revolution 9 as your next project? ;-)

[raffaport]

Hi. Thanks, Ruskers. I'd have got back to you sooner, but you came through as spam ("Spam, spam, spam, spam!"). Revolution No. 9 - well, ukuleles going backwards would be an interesting sound; you first, though. Regards to you and hope all is well.

[oldfolkiepad]

A super job you've made of this, Graham. Your singing style here reminds me of Brian Ferry - it suits the song beautifully.

Best wishes,

Paddy

[raffaport]

Hi, Paddy. Thanks very much for this - much appreciated. I hope you are still enjoying performing at your local hostelry/folk club. Kind regards, Graham

[buniluvr]

Hi Graham,

Nice hat! Great performance - love the vocals. I didn't realize how much I miss this song. Thanks for bringing back some great memories. All stars **********

cheers,

julie

[raffaport]

Thanks very much, Julie. I need to get round to yours as I've just seen you've posted one recently and also that Big Rich has been covering one of yours. Regards to you.

[1Jisom]

Cool Graham, I'm not gonna comment on the hat, because I have one like it, but just not like it..He he.. Great groove you got going on here, really diggin it..

[raffaport]

Afternoon, Jeff. Good to hear from you and thanks very much for this. Am coming visiting real soon. Regards.

[williheckaslike]

Nice job on this Graham ~ Love the hat ...... I thought you'd got Clint Eastwood in to do the video, when i saw the thumbnail image !

All the very best ~ Geoff

[raffaport]

Hi, Geoff. Thanks mate, though I think there's more of a resemblance to Clyde the ape than Clint. Hope you are well.

[julanenova]

Cool! .. don't remember this Beatles' tune (probably a lot of them that I 've never heard!) ... you've captured their sound very well!

[raffaport]

Hello, Jude. Thanks very much for this.

[raffaport]

Thank you. Love your "A Team" and had to subscribe. Regards.

[maggiesband]

Great! Didn't rememeber to know this Beatles song before - but now it is nailed in my mind. Your hat (which has not seen deserts or raccoons yet) suits you just perfectly and I cannot stop envying your perfect guitar playing.

[raffaport]

Thank you, both. Guitar playing? It's only four and a half chords and you could do it in your sleep, Vesa, but thanks for your kind words - much appreciated.

[eatonjohnrobert]

This is making me smile.

[raffaport]

Hee hee. Thanks, JR, from one old cowpoke to another.

[kennova01]

[raffaport]

Yup, you got me going down that trail, pardner. Kind regards to you.

Hello, Babs. Thanks very much for this. I look forward to listening to your next one, though you need to raise the camera a bit. Regards.

[carrolly2k]

YeeeHaaaa! That was fantastic Graham!!!

[raffaport]

Thanks, Jim. Hot diggerty dawg!

[songblurred]

43 years to absorb it and to make it into something special. Great job, Graham!

[raffaport]

Thanks, Don. It does take me awhile to get round to things! I really enjoyed your Madame of the West, by the way.

[TheSimmi45]

Good job! Thumbs up!
