The Band - The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down [acoustic guitar/electric bass cover]

Turn up the BASS!

Our cover of the song "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" from the album "The Band." There's one part in the second verse where I speed up for no good reason, but other than that I really like this take. The turnarounds in this song are magical - it's too bad we don't have a piano and a horn section, though!

Enjoy.

i agree, that is rare as far as covers go. although most people have nice singing voices its just that its hard to relate there voices to the actual original composer.
