I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Oh, that hit the spot!
Awesome recording, LOVE IT!!!
Don't normally like cover songs...unless they're turned on their head. And you have done a killer job...Great.
Straight out of the Commitments sound track I say.....Great track
Very amazing.
Good song all around. All the instruments interact well and the recording is clean. You have a great soulful tone to your voice.
I have the BR1600CD, I recorded almost all my stuff on it!
Some nice dynamics, sounds like a pretty polished pop rock tune!
Some excellent stuff here, nice one. :)
Top track mate.
I dig your voice...veey soulful.... Nice acapella version....
S-w-e-e-t Piepod I love it Andrew! LG

Well ole Reg certainly is in a bad way... Nice one, love the vocal on this.
Ooo yeah...
Aw this is just gorgeous. Good song well delivered - and some mighty fine arranging, love the sound.
Cool! Rockin and janglin all at the same time. Like it a lot.
Ha! Ha! Laughing out loud here. Brilliant. And a fine acoustic sound, and the slide work is just gorgeous.
When I read the "about" I thought "uh-oh, it ain't gonna grab me" BUT! It's fab, love it :-)
Yeah, slightly different, but still Reg. Like it.
I can hear The Who too on this. Like it. Love the groove.
