Kyle Gray Young - Papa Gene's Blues (Monkees/Nesmith cover)

[BlackwaterBill]

Thanks for my fav Monkees tune. Gonna practice tomorrow.

[JulioBatista66]

Awesome rendition

[pickinpedaler]

Is that, perchance, a D10S yer rockin' there? Gives me hope... REALLLY nice job.

[MrBadguitar]

Not sure if you're still reading these, but just wanted to say how much I love your version of this great song.

[jdubose12]

this is amazing. i'd ask for chords, but i don't think i could emulate such awesomeness. mike would be proud.

[thenomadicsoul]

@jdubose12 Thank you! Just capo up and play in G. G-D/F#-Em-D a couple times. Add a E7 to Am to D. Repeat that. Next part goes C-Cm-G-D/F#-Em-E7-Am-Am/B-Am/C­-A/C#-D-G. That's just about it. Watch my fingers for the changes.

[McHugeLarge]

Nicely done, and good singing. Nice touch with the slower blues version, keep up the good work.

[RIchardEPfeifer]

[giffdud]

I can't believe how much I enjoyed this song! You are extremely talented. Is there any chance of me getting a CD of your Nesmith covers?  Wool hat Mike is the most underrated rock heroes ever.

[Hmmmmmmmm222]

You are a great mike player and singer i sent you something in your inbox

[mermandrea]

Great rendition! This is one of my favorite songs and I love your guitar on this!

[girlfriendisbetter]

hello from London, England

i think you're fantastic!

This is just great and I particularly love a cover that isn't a copy - this has loads of your personality coming through

love the little growl in your voice!

looking forward to more :)

[thenomadicsoul]

Wow, thank you! What a wonderful comment to read. I really do appreciate the kind words.

[nezedge]

Awesome job!

[InfiniteNesmith]

Holy foop! Amazing. :) Reminds me of the Live @ the Britt version.

[zt2kid]

Brilliant! Keep goin!

[sammysam1770]

Wow, what a great version.. Keep on rocking it!

[RevSpike]

Yeah - another vote for Sweet Young Thing - get loose!

This one rocked! Great voice and even better guitar-plyin'!

[catchersmitt0]

Nice version.  Very nice... and with more feeling than the original.

[MrsCSMBMG]

You could try Travis' "Anymore" or "I'm going to be somebody", I think those would work well for you. You do a great job on this Monkees song, I think you would rock any with lead vocals by Mike Nesmith-maybe "Sweet Young Thing" or "What am I doin' hangin' round"?

[MrsCSMBMG]

Dude, you remind me of a young Travis Tritt...you're awesome---rock on!

Thanks for bringing this classic song along for the ride...

[thenomadicsoul]

Hey thanks for the comment! I've never heard a Travis Tritt comparison before. Maybe I'll learn one of his songs and see what happens. Any suggestions?
