Slit Skirts - Pete Townshend cover

[OnlineGamer956]

whats the tuning?

[BlueStrat1958]

Played well but DUDE!! You cannot sing in that key!

[TehSxeNerd]

fuuuckin sexy las u got there, u aint bad yoself ;) (no homo)

[GRAPHICgrafix]

Great Job one of my all time fav songs.....

[FinancingHouston]

Nice job on a great song...

[bonehead1966]

Very nice..it takes on a more somber feel with thesofter vocal..but beautiful job..better than so many covers i've heard of THE WHO. townshend is a very unique nonetheless. done very well in your own way.

[chipdouglas42]

Great!

[kingster8u2]

BEAUTIFUL job! Perhaps the vocal needs a bit more "attitude" or aggression... but a FANTASTIC job notheless!

And homophobia has no place ANYPLACE but especially not in the arts...Some people's kids...

[biggibson49]

Homo? Fuck you. It's his version. Neil Youngesque.  Right on dude!

Ur a homo buddy!

[evelskunny]

your singing it like a homo! u should have fairies flying around your studio''stick to guitar''

[glennorange]

This is like my 28th time watching this.  GREAT work!

[Loosendz1]

Yeah man...great stuff. I'm lost in your videos. I really dig how authentic it all sounds (all your Pete/Who covers). So few seem to really capture Pete's style and voicings, but yours really hit it. Only wish I could see a little better...to pick off your interpretations.

[TheWhoQuad]

Wow! This may be your best to date.. and that is saying something... Great job Eddie... Watching it again...

[mrbadx19]

just another 5 stars, so well done, amazing!

[1960jack]

NICE JOB DUDE! This is one of favorite

Pete songs.

[soxrock2007]

Dude! What the F&^@%$@^&%$^@$. how did you pull the tracks?! This is one of my alltime favorite tracks...I would like to play my guitar to this. You did such a great job! Thank you. Damn that was good! How can I do that?!?! thank you...thank you..

[Eddie629]

lol..Thanks bro !!....I made the backing track stuff myself using my keyboard...it has all the sounds to play with (drums,bass etc)..I love Pete Townshends songwriting !!Cheers !!

[MrDaveSS1]

@soxrock2007 man! thank gawd he didn't smash that les paul. that one-ups him on pete T

[littledickyharris]

You are my new you tube hero.Great Vocals on this song. Another song I wanted to learn, thank you again, How about posting -I'm the One- for me.... Dude the power of music, your music, all be it a cover of Pete has done wonders for my life and I am not just talking Sh** here.

[modoc63]

I'm 45, been a who fan for over 30 yrs. This is my favorite Townsend solo song. You are very good. like your voice when you get rocking. You should try "Sustitute" Or "After the Fire".Glad I found your sight. Cheers Bro! How about some doors! Keep on rocking!!

[Eddie629]

Thanks modoc63 !!!Thanks for checking it !!..I have 1 Doors cover..Runnin Blue !!

[mazakman1957]

Awesome..man you are as good as I always wished I could be on the guitar, and I admire your vocal talent as well. I was a fan of the Who since the 7th grade (Tommy) and was blown away by Quadrophenia..

You do them proud, I wish Pete and Roger were YouTube watchers!

[Eddie629]

Thanks bro !!!that would be cool if they watched it!!!Cheers bro !!

[chipdouglas42]

Wow. That was fantastic. Well done sir.

[glennorange]

NICE!! Seriously nice, you do justice to Pete!

[keekross]

This reminds me of how great Townshend's solo stuff really is, and you've done the song justice, 5 stars.

[dougm1971]

if i had half your talent i'd be very happy...

Give Blood would suit your style of play Eddie.How about something from Rough Mix,Street in the City or Misunderstood perhaps?

Nice job Eddie.Easily my favorite Townshend solo tune and you did a helluva job on it.

I always loved that lyric "I was just 34 yrs old and I was still wandering in a haze and I was wondering why everyone I met seemed like they were lost in a maze".Brilliant.

Kudos to you !
