Putting my own stank on a cover from another mother. Jeff is brilliant and so is Stevie Wonder who wrote and George Martin who produced Jeff's Grammy winning version. What Greatness!

I'm working on finding out how to get acoustic stuff down consistently and effectively within the confines of what I've got here - I wasn…
lots of different things I tried in this one, mostly in structure and vox, as well as harmony and texture. I guess it is a progressive type song with some gloom.
the intro is a short bass thing with effects called nectar, its like 25 sec.s…

We gain what we earn

family, we all share
In this world to create
Revolution is Coming

we've come full circle again
can you feel the waves of sin
my friends
we've come full circle again
do you feel the pain, like me?
driven from rivers of blood

A little banjo-centric parody of the old Irving Berlin song, written after more than a week in -20 C. temps in northwest Russia. Brrr. And Merry Christmas.
Just in time for the big 2012 election!

Just me and me banjo.
Inspired by a story my journalist daughter in Moscow just published. She was too small when we moved to Russia to remember that politicians shaking hands…
A little tune to help me get through the winter ... used my 63 Fender Jazzmaster for the guitar tracks. This guitar has been with me through thick and thin and just gets better with age.

Wake up in the morning, I’m still in my cloths
I got one eye open but the other wont go
Barely can remember the night before
Except for how you threw me out the door
Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey
I think I’m in trouble again…

One of my fav Clapton songs, perfect playing man! The tone is spot-on, very much like that original recording that i listen to so much!
I feel like I am back in London, in 1966. What a great sound..
Oh yesss, nice
Nice picking and bending!
Hale yes!

Imagining passing thru a nebula. Very cool.
Cool madness.
Beauty in a greyish, blurry sort of way. :)
Love the upfront guitar and how u harmonized that vocal.part.
Apllause......beautiful command. I could here your voice in film music. Great once again AR.
Epic journey goin on. Well done.
Surreal vision here. Very fitting.
Dig the message. It where we are at.
Simply Incredible. Blown away.
Love that spring reverb. Right on the money with the mid 60's rock sound. Killer.
Solid. Keepin it alive.
Wondering how you came up with that melody.
This is epic...must have missed this one. Futuristic and ominous.
A picker extraordinaire.
This is solid. Your voice is perfect for this style. Clever writing to boot.
Classy. Love the chimey tones. The horn section at the end adds a nice vintage sound. Really warm feel overall that fits the theme Winter.
Some nice songwriting. The way country music was supposed to be.
Unique and distinct style you guys have.
Cool tune.
Taking guitar to a whole different level. Love how that percussive finger tapping morphed into almost a tabla sound against those swells.
