Nice version of a great old song... Alex Harvey is regarded as the writer around here. Saw him at the Rubaiyat in Dallas back in 1975. More recently , at the Blue Bird in Nashville. He just came in unannounced with his buddies and sort of took over the place. Tanya Tucker was 13 when she recorded this song and it was what made her famous until she got too into her Elvis thing. Then Married Glen Campbell and that went real bad.

A couple of pros. Nice track ya'll.

Sneaking some collab action in. Nice , oh so very nice! Makes me happy to hear this. ;)

Nice job, wonderful harmony.....

Spectacular vocals & harmonies , just so good - a wonderful pairing guys

I like the Tanya Tucker version. I have to tell you this is pretty professional and all, but I sort of wish you guys had traded verses to sing rather than just lines. I wanted to hear the particular singer go on a little longer. But it is great cover of a great old song.

Great sound :)

i dig you man!

cool raw rock an roll bro!

Nailed it.

Very nice production :)

Nice one guys,like it!

OK, I'm hooked. I just hit the replay button again. Great vocal synergy between the two of you, and the resonator guitar . . . well . . . it just brings it over the top.

Fab' vocals and a spotless production make a great song!

Ah! Tanya Tucker - that was the name!! And, er, DAW? What DAW?! No DAWs in use here! lol I usually synch vocals by singing them again until they're right... We didn't really have that luxury, though - in the end I've got quite fond of the "rough and ready" vibe on it (it did bug me at first!)

Your original songs are the best ones. Great stuff, Andy!

This is one of my favourite songs of Helen Reddy's (although that's already a cover of the Tanya Tucker version)! Nice, bluesy rendition. :) The vocals are heavily out of sync though - you should fix that in your DAW.

very niiiice! well done guys

Lovely cover: The voices rub really fine

It's definitely worth following Bethan around on this site... Fine, fine song. I love "She wants the truth... she says" ... ALL boys need teaching this (before they find out disasterously for themselves) lol

I keep coming back to this one as well. Such feel-good music.

And I need another listen to this as well. This is gorgeous, utterly gorgeous.

Back for another listen. It's early morning, I'm having a coffee and doing some emails and a bit of listening before disappearing back into the room with too many guitars. The one I'm working on now isn't acoustic, but this is what I wanted to listen to first. This is kinda uplifting and the right thing to start with :)

Right from the opening guitar notes... (faved right then, didn't care what might follow!) ... stately stuff, superb. I've been fave-ing a lot of stuff recently, this is one where I felt like I needed a "super-fave" button... Love it.

Ah, I remember this kinda stuff. Don't listen to it much at all nowadays, but it's nice to hear every now and then. This reminds me of "Ultimate Sin" period Ozzy - can't remember who the guitarist on that is (probably someone really famous in the guitar world!). And Ronnie James Dio - WHAT a voice that guy had... I'm with captgene on this one - "Rocks"

Short and sweet... but what a tone! Made me think of Jack Black in School of Rock - I think this one qualifies as a "face-melting solo" lol

And a new one from T as well! Bliss... This is wondrous. Love the "Three thousand pennies..." line.

It's just past 8am on a Saturday morning, no work, thank goodness. Got my strong black coffee and cigarette... ... and this is the first thing I hear. What a set-up for the day. Fabulous... Many thanks

Hey, second listen, the hook is there!!

Aww yeah... fabulous Not sure that I'm going to get involved in the fest myself, but if I do get time, this was the main one I wanted to do but I couldn't figure out how to approach it. I'd have wanted to strip the famous hook out as well, but I couldn't see what was left that I could make something of... THIS on the other hand is exactly what's left and you've grabbed it by the short and curlies. Fine job sir.

Tasty. Does sound very summery - almost enough to block out the rain going on here. Maybe it's cos I'm a guitarist, but I felt no "rambling on" without the vocal. It's almost got an Allman Brothers vibe to it.

I've listened to them in the wrong order! But, hey, it's fabulous. I see how this fits on the front of John Capulator.

I was about to comment when I listened earlier but a bunch of other stuff happened. Really like this. Very atmospheric. And like B says, some fantastic guitar all the way through. The lyrics weren't up when I first listened, and I wasn't really listening to the words, but the moods the music and vocal were painting really fits the words. Nice one

It is! (ah and you've added an about, and stuck them in the title) SUPERB version

WOW! Brilliant version (it is what I think it is, isn't it?). If it isn't... er... brilliant anyway! Love it.

Just realised I hadn't listened to this... There's quite an amazing breadth of styles you handle. I feel like I do electric stuff and acoustic stuff, but it's all pretty much rock-pop with hints of blues, country, and folk in varying degrees. The only time I step out of this is if I approach the recording machine without a finished song and just wing it (rarely finish any of those though!). Another nice one :-)

Another cutie...

Love this one. Brilliant lyrics, and a gorgeous quirky performance. I like how you fly by the seat of your pants on songs - you seem to be treading a thin line between genius and disaster. For my money you're falling off on the genius side with this one. I always aim at solid and dependable - I've got a feeling I could learn something from your songs.

lol - that'll teach me to post before the owner has fixed the title etc... Good excuse to give it a second listen. And reading the "About" now - yeah, I thought David Bowie when I was listening to "75e67 c5 etc" (actually, that might have been what made me think of David Bowie!)
