Nick Drake Rider on the Wheel

It's been a while since I've done one with just guitar and vocal.The tuning I use is(from low to high string)GGDGBD,basically open G but with the low E string tuned up to the same note as the G on the A string(I wouldn't leave it in this tuning for too long though as it can't be good for the neck).I tune it this way so that I can alternate playing the low bass notes on the E and A string,I think it sounds better that way.

Hey,thanks again.

[BleakAutumnMist]

Absolutely amazing ! So close to the original version. Great guitar skills ! How long does it take you to learn a song ? Do you use tabs from internet or playing by ear ?

[GSarovich]

Perfection mate!! I feel like I'm getting that rare chance to watch Nick perform live!

[matrags]

I've been checking a few of your covers and there really great. Closest to the originals I've heard. Do you write any of your own stuff?

[Slarti2]

You do the best covers of Nick Drake. Love to hear you do a version of "From the morning" by Drake from Pink Moon.

well played...one of the easier drake songs to play

you sing/play very well in this cover

the feel to it was genuine

a very relaxed song...tough at times not to lose the pase (i think you were just a bit fast at times)

but it didnt take away much from your performance.

again, great job. i loved listening to you

betwenn an apple and a pear I would choose the fruit.

[acidsjester2]

i love how you can faintly hear the metronome... a good sign, and it shows.

[milis0x0]

wow!! you're really good!

[samnninty]

Wow this is fantastic. I prefer your covers with just guitar and vocals. A cover of which will would be fantastic if you're stuck for ideas.

thanks

Great work man!

Do you have your own material? Or do you only play covers?
