"Because" - A Tribute To Mike Smith of The Dave Clark Five by J. Cortese

[IceSkater8491]

John, your cover of "Because" is fantastic! It gave me goose bumps! I've posted your video to The Dave Clark Five Fans Facebook page. Ron Ryan, who wrote "Because," will look at it I'm sure. You might even hear from him. Dave Clark didn't write it. I noticed you even dressed like a DC 5 member. I am still applauding you. Keep up the good work!

Thanks again Carlo. I have more 60's on the way, but I have a Badfinger video I'm currently working on, "Day After Day". A Tribute to Pete Ham, and hope to have it uploaded by next week....JC

Thanks so much Carlo. I need a cameraman with a good camera. For now, I'm the cameraman, musician, etc.. I guess that explains the poor video quality.

Thanks again for all your nice comments.

Sounds good, liked it - John

Carl Bari Productions makes a suggestion here: Perfecto A+ on your composition and music. Over exposed set with lighting. Turn it down. Come in for a close up on your face so we can see your pretty face then pan out and back with the camera so we can see the set and the distiction in your face. Mavelous...simply mavelous!

[MrCarloBari]

Thanks! Great stuff never dies. I'll carry it with me always. Make some more 60's tributes and let me know when they are available!

[jcgu1tar]

Thank you for the nice comments Faith. Yes, musically it was a great time.

Best of Luck, John C.

Nice Tribute. Got to see DC 5 live once, in late 1965 while Over & Over was #1. Mike Smith was great live.
