  • Might I suggest back off everything. You are playing too hard and singing to hard this creates a harmonic distortion that is quite unpleasant (sometimes called blare).

  • Thank you for the free advice.

  • That's not "In the Pines." Supposedly, "In the Pines" is completely unrelated to "Where Did You Sleep Last Night." Damned if I didn't think someone was robbing someone...

    The chords are Em, Am, G, B. It doesn't appear that you were doing those chords, so you must have done it in a key to suit your voice.

  • Yeah, I just like playing it like that. I guess thats one nice thing about folk music, and what ever you call it, I got the lyrics from on old Leadbelly recording.

  • Really well done; strong, emphatic guitar style and great, rough-twang bluegrass voice. I can't decide if I would have preferred a slightly slower tempo, but still think it was excellent!

  • Thank you so much, i prefer a slower tempo as well but my camera only allowed 3 minutes of video so I had to step it up a notch.

  • i listen to you singing most every day keep up the great work,shaz

  • very well done,would like to see you do more songs, brilliant young man

  • I think this is brilliant. Well done, man.

  • The other In the pines goes

    "in the pines, in the pines where the sun never shines, and you shiver and shake as the cold wind blows. Well the longest train that I ever did see was a hundred coaches long.

  • @DealTurtle I was speaking as a sound engineer not a music critic, it usually costs 125 an hour to get my caustic critiques. But it's sage advice, everything is there but it's all at full tilt boogy which leaves you no high point to accent the work. Watch how different tenors sing Danny Boy - it has a show boating note that tenors tend to overkill but the great tenors sing it soft.

  • @andocrates Possibly, but might it also be a product of poor sound quality in the recording technique, sometimes that can happen based mostly on the recording device/setup, correct?

  • Love this version,

  • can i get the chords please =)

  • good stuff :)

  • wonderful sounds kinda like leadbelly.
