Learning to Fly...Tom Petty cover

Here's a simple 4 chord song that's easy to play, but it turns out that it has a lot of different parts. I tried to record most of them as I heard them, and using as many guitars as I could squeeze in.

Pretty good, sir! You caught the vocal harmonies in chorus(are they 4 part?). Also caught that chiming G guitar part in the background that nobody ever seems to hear. Good ear, man. Could you let me know how you did the slide solo? Open tunung or standard. Thanks

@halifax1313 Thanks man, I try to include the details of a song when I can. The harmonies are just 2 part. Glad someone noticed the 'chiming' guitar part too. I did the slide part in standard tuning, probably tuned down to fit my voice, and the rhythm guitars are played in 2 different keys using a capo on one of them. Thanks for checking it out.

Another great vid of a cool song. JIm what camera do you use?

[2wheelsturnin]

Chass, I've been using the same cam for a long time - Sony DCR-DVD308. I had to buy a shoe adapter to get a mic input, then started using reel to reel recorders. My videos aren't that great LOL. Thanks for checking it out.

I'm not too familiar with playing slide, but I gave it a shot. Thanks, whippersnapper.
