    Growing up my parents always had Elton John, The Guess Who, The Beatles & Billy Joel playing so he's definitely an artist who truly inspired my interest in music. I was just a little whippersnapper when this came out being born in 69.

  • Hey, how do you mic yourself? Is this just through your camera's mic, or have you got a mic setup? The slight roominess on this is really sweet, is that just the acoustics of where you're playing?

  • i just use a webcam and an old pc mic, trick is to place it so the guitar isnt too loud and the vox are clear and nothing breaks up.

  • I missed this one! How could I! Well done once again. I really like your rendition.
