Roll Over Beethoven - with changes

I sing Roll Over Beethoven with a few changes...of, well, you'll see. I played all guitar parts, sang both vocal tracks and used "Band-in-a-Box" software for the drums, bass, etc.

How interesting. I like your "licks" here & there in "Roll Over Beethoven." Were you a former lead guitarist in a band, and...is that a Fender vintage guitar you have there? Sounds like a late 60's or early 70's.

You are correct. I used to play lead guitar in bands, and for ten years it was every weekend.. The guitar is a 1996 "Lone Star" Stratocaster 50th anniversary model with two Stevie Ray Vaughn "Texas Special" pickups and a Seymour Duncan® Pearly Gates Humbucking Pickup at the bridge.I bought this guitar in 1996 and have never looked back-I love it!!!! Thanks for commenting. Did you count the number of different shirts I wore in the video?

@cicalone70 It's a dashiki I bought one day at an Indian store in Minneaplis. Little did I know then that I would visit India twice since then! Thanks for the interesting comment!

As a quick change artist you're the best! You must be nearly as old as me but still rock! Great rendition, thanks
