Hey Jeff...What filtering processes do you use...if any at all? In this piece I hear an artefact that I'm sure is from your vocal track but the artecfact (about 15 secs long) is DEAD-ON John Lennon...
@TheDevilsSwitchboard It's been a long time since I recorded this one. I double tracked the vocals organically, rather than using processing in post. But I'm sure I also added some sort of chorus filter or something else in the vocal mix to replicate (at least to my ear) the original vocal processing. That's something I always try to do with my covers as well - replicate the type of vocal effects used on the original, whether it's reverb, chorus, eq, etc.
@JeffMcNeal Ah...that explains it...you were able to replicate George Martin's Studio engineering process through an effects process...John Lennon demanded that of George for most of the time George Martin worked with the Beatles and John continued using that same process afterward...
On your "Give Me Just a Little More Time" page I just commented that might have been your best cover, because its unreal, and then I listened to this one and I'm blown away, it sounds EXACTLY like the record, which only happens to be one of the greatest songs ever recorded.
Dude I'm serious, you're not human, this is insane, you must be an alien! :-)
@JeffMcNeal Quite! In all seriousness, it's one thing to make a song your own when you cover it and I appreciate that. It's a completely different and harder thing to EXACTLY replicate the original performance, which is what you've done here. Outstanding work and a great choice in music.
@XxLovefistxX I'm so glad that you were pleasantly surprised and appreciate the effort that went into this. Thank you so much. I've also covered "Dear Prudence" and I think it turned out almost as nice. I've done a few other Lennon/Beatle covers, too. I hope you'll check them out. Thanks again.

@JeffMcNeal I'm sorry, you misunderstood. I was alluding that the singer sounded like the Dos Equis spokesman in the beginning.

I don't always sing cover tunes, but when I do, I prefer John Lennon.
