This sounds just fantastic. Been listening a lot to Alan Parson through the years. This particular song is not a favorite, but your version here is extremely enjoyable!
Dude, this playing is FANTASTIC, love you style and choice of songs, I was expecting something hoaky, but man I WAS IMPRESSED. I play guitar, bass and flute and am rarely impressed but this was just amazing!
I come here for the 2nd time and just want to say that I like it so much.. You synthesized in an instrument bass, piano, voice and guitar. And did enchanting jazz harmonizations, yet remaining faithful to the original chord scheme.
Thank you very much! For me, playing these tunes comes from an emotional place, as opposed to an exercise in harmony which is also fun, because the songs are meaningful to me, I hope this comes through in the music. Thanks so much!
Hi Jake, thanx for your private message! A very pleasurable and original cover. Yes of course as you say this is a jazz cover of a rock song but.. APP music has been readapted in many ways by some of its same members, and, as you probably know, Ian Bairnson, the group's guitarist is a jazzman, so I think he would appreciate this a lot. The jazz guitar sound goes well with the song's feeling. Gonna share this with some fans..
I've been listening in rapture, sometimes with my jaws falling, sometimes smiling...
Not only you've respected, as you always do, the feeling, the mood of the song... not only you've greatly ruled (as usual) those bass line/rhythm parts/melody... but you've also given to such a classic a new, swinging life!
Flawless.
5* (50* wouldn't be enough), adding it to my favorites... and sharing it with my contacts!
;-)
Thank you, Jake, for sharing your talent with all of us!
Thank you for posting this. It's like an extra xmas gift for me. I love I Robot album by APP.
Too bad you don't play in Austin, TX! You should. There is a place here called the Elephant Room. Book it!

That was absolutely gorgeous. I sat listening/watching completely transfixed. Great performance and arrangement. Thanks.
Wish I lived nearby so I could come hear you play in person. You must be the workingest guitar player in Ann Arbor, or at least one of them...

Superb! Standing O for this very talented musician. I guarantee Alan himself has listened to this and I'm guessing he's smiling with admiration.
