[midawin]

[fuzzypige222]

Gui, dude, cant even begin to do this song...the cat and dog leave the room....so youre awesome for getting it 99

i am sure youre a person who can make them strings ring. if you noticed, i have listened to you about 10 times...so yeah, youre a good one. good job

@fuzzypige222 - Thanks. I appreciate the kind words.

I see the comment from 8 months ago. Have you listened to any of the other tunes, especially the more recent ones? Much better quality, recording-wise, that is.

[fuzzypige222]

like a lot of us dabblers, you need the high strings to ring from time to time..as in a lot...especially with a 12-string

[GuiTuber]

@fuzzypige222 - it's funny you should mention that. I've recently thought about recording this song, as well as others from this time period.

This was only my second recording... ever. I had only one mic and I was inexperienced about where to place it. I now have two (better) mics and know more about what I'm doing. The placement of the mic in this recording is responsible for the muddiness and extra bass sound.

Your comment may just be the impetus behind doing this song over.

[Smackdaddy9]

[fuzzypige222]

i better not comment...........chording was good though....

Very nice! Good guitar and vocals :-)

[GuiTuber]

Thanks, DrRobert. You did well with your version as well. It's fun to compare.

[GuiTuber]

Thanks, Dale. I didn't think the vocals was my best effort. It's one of my favorite JB tunes though. Thanks for the kind words.

[wiretwanger3]

Ha yes! Keep posting, I'm loving your guitar work.

[wiretwanger3]

Oh lovely! A really well performed song along with the richness of that 12 string, irresistable.

Cheers Lee

[GuiTuber]

Thanks, Lee. The voice was a little pitchy here and there though. We're our own worst critics, right?
