  • Gotta love Bette...

  • @mythtree Yes indeed ;-))

  • Hey Dear Dave, have you also produced *the clap-hands* sound while drumming?? This is such a wonderful cover recorded with a *real* Bette Davies Video! Fascinating!

  • @ludo281160 Hi Ludo, glad you enjoyed this one. The keyboard player was doing the hand clap sounds on his synth. I didn't have electronic drums at this stage but I did later on.

    Cheers, Dave

    Elaine x

  • @ther51 Yes she was. Thanks Elaine. Dave x

  • Always loved this song. Have mixed feelings about Bette. On the one hand she was sexy and beguiling and on the other she played such nasty characters... but that's not to say she wasn't a great actress. And the eyes are quite compelling for sure. Good treatment of both aspects of her.

  • @archtopbrownie Cheers Lance. I feel the same way about her as you do. Dave ;-))

  • @flewincnowokayx12 Thanks Jimi. It's good fun going through the old tapes from time to time and picking out a song to upload. I'll run out one day...but not for a while yet...lol ;-))

  • @sproutcentral Sounds good ;-)) I'll always be a big fan of yours, that goes without saying. Looking forward to some more "live" stuff, like that one of you on stage when you were on vacation. That was cool! Record @ a Gig sometime for us!?! I would really love that ;-)) Take care my friend ;-)) Jj-

  • Great stuff as usual Dave.

    The vocals remind me of Glasgow blues/jaz/rock singer Maggie Bell.

    Loved this!

  • @dunnacoustic Thanks George. I'm sure Creenagh would be flattered to be compared to Maggie.

    Cheers, Dave ;-))

  • Super stuff, Dave; a very fine performance from Azlan, and a video that shows precisely why Bette Davis's eyes inspired the song.

    Best wishes,

    Paddy

  • @oldfolkiepad Thanks very much Paddy. It's not hard to see why the song was written after seeing these photos.

    Cheers, Dave.
