Four Walls of Raiford (cover)

Here's a forgotten song. Lynyrd Skynyrds Four Walls of Raiford was a demo track that wasnt released until years after the plane crash. Its a great prison song that never got much playtime. The un-dubbed demo was just Ronnie Van Zant singing with a slide guitar in the background. I need to spend the time to learn the song correctly only using the resonator, but this is my version of the song. I like putting alot of tracks together, I hope you like it.

I recorded and mixed 7 tracks on my Tascam DP-008 multi-track recorder. One acoustic track using my Fender 140SCE thru an Acoustic AG30 amp, a lead/rythym electric guitar track using a Squier Vintage Modified Thinline Telecaster thru the AG30, a slide guitar track using my Johnson Resonator, a bass track using my Peavey Millennium BXP thru a GK Backline 110, a 72 bpm drum track on an Alesis SR-16, and a vocal track using a Shure SM-58 thru an original Peavey MP-4 I bought in 1979, and a harmonica track using a Lee Oskar harmonica in the key of A. The videos are laid over the final mixed audio track. Its not perfect by any means. Thanks for watching.
