Okay Andrew R. , this ones for you bud. Had a little fun with it in the intro. That was the surprise.
I put the bass line down and arranged the drums Saturday morning and returned later that night about 10:00 pm . I worked until 2 am and laid…
I was finally able to finish this one up over this past week. Like always I am never satisfied but I have come to a point where I just tell myself enuff is enuff and move on to the next song...pheww! Hopefully it sounds good on everyone elses…
Awesome song. I like this version, loving the wah guitar in the left channel. You got good taste in music! I love the cover of this by the band Rare Earth. Good cover!
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Yes. Captain Beyond was remnants of Iron Butterfly, Rod Evans original vocalist for Deep Purple(One of my favorite vocalists ever), and johnny Winter. You nailed it. Psychedelic Jazz Rock mostly. They're one of my all time faves. Check out live at montreaux on youtube with Captain Beyond.
Thanks for stopping by
Peace

Well done. Curious how royalties work when covering music for free? Do you have to pay anyone anything? Hendrix is awesome.
Good cover. Out of Hendrix I have I don't know this song. The riffs remind me of Dancing madly Backwards by Captain beyond. Though almost without a doubt Hendrix did it first. Captain beyond was 1971 I think.

YESSIRREEE!
This is the bizness. I knew you could pull it off :)
Particularly love the bridges ("That's why") and how they slam into the chorus. Always loved those bits...
And the solo, and the guitar on the last chorus/out - sounds like you've got walls of plexis rattling the control room windows.
... and lol at sticking EXP on the front of it.
This one needs a FAVE of the FAVES button.

I threw this one together tonite/early am...yawnnnnn. Not an exact replica but always a tribute to Jimi's music. I was originally turned on to do this by some new free vst effects I found on the net. A cool fuzz face vst that is very realistic…

I came back for a 2nd listen ... I think you're a good player. Not really into covers unless they are redone and reshaped into something original. I like your voice and pretty good production quality. I think you could have stepped the lead up a bit ... let it rip at the end ... maybe a bit more volume and drive. Really good though

Finally getting some time to work out a few ideas I have been exploring. Heading into the mountains for while....I will add more soon with a clear mind.
Here's my last studio effort of the summer, as we roll into fall!

A simple 12-bar in 6/8 time. I almost like it.
The guitars are all Les Paul.
Turn the page again
It's time to start anew
From the top this time
don't think we can make it
Don't see there's much chance
Round and round and round we…
CATFISH FISHIN'

Three days of rain
Mud between my toes
First day of sun
Cut me a cain pole
I’m goin’ catfish fishin’

Catfish I’m fishin

Just back from a lovely two week holiday in Cornwall and Gene sent me the finished version while i was away....another excellent backer by gene ...hope you enjoy our take on a Stevie wonder classic ......
This one is still a bit rough, but I wanted to share and see if anyone has an interest in adding some guitars, bass, other vocal parts for fun. I left the chords in the lyrics below, in case you wanted to collaborate. I hope you enjoy it…
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…
Here is a *MOJITO* Fueled version of "TV Dinner" that we recorded last Monday night in my Basement.
It's one of 9 songs we will be taping for Community TV, thanks to the *Minnesota Association Of SongWriters*

My 1000th Upload in 6 years...Thanks for listening it's been quite a journey from my first tentative step into this new world of making music.I couldn't have done it without you THANKS!!.....Here's a live in the cellar production.....

Pack a bag and head out west
Change of clothes and leave the rest
Northern skin needs a little sun
Sunshine can cure anyone
Slow it down to a steady pace
Forget about the human race
All I need is what’s inside
Take the rest and let it…
Just a taste of the ongoing project - a sweet little song about finding love later in life. Ultimately, Jessica will be singing the first verse, I'll keep the second, and she'll be harmonizing with me the rest of the way. The whistling will…
Haven't been about for a while...been busy doing nothing but i had some time this morning to have a strum and this is what i came up with after a bit of pondering.....Thanks for listening
One and one makes two

Comments on JR James's stuff
I like :)
Great groove. Makes me feel good.
Awesome song. I like this version, loving the wah guitar in the left channel. You got good taste in music! I love the cover of this by the band Rare Earth. Good cover!
Yes. Captain Beyond was remnants of Iron Butterfly, Rod Evans original vocalist for Deep Purple(One of my favorite vocalists ever), and johnny Winter. You nailed it. Psychedelic Jazz Rock mostly. They're one of my all time faves. Check out live at montreaux on youtube with Captain Beyond. Thanks for stopping by Peace
Sorry I think its actually the song Raging River of fear by Captain Beyond these riffs remind me of.
Well done. Curious how royalties work when covering music for free? Do you have to pay anyone anything? Hendrix is awesome. Good cover. Out of Hendrix I have I don't know this song. The riffs remind me of Dancing madly Backwards by Captain beyond. Though almost without a doubt Hendrix did it first. Captain beyond was 1971 I think.
Ooooh!, Yeah!!
I think Jimi would be pleased
Rocks , well done.
Ooh that took me back, the days of great B sides on records. Rock on Jimi !!!!

..particularly like your vocal on this one - another rockin' Hendrix classic to add to my favourites list. Well done, James..
Still loving this one.
Great job....just love the guitar work, and your voice....smokiiiin.....
Still remember hearing that LP in '67, blew my socks off & it still plays .........Good job
Very nice!

A whole box of awesomeness.
A+ buddy. Amazing work!
Nice! Hadn't thought of this tune for a long time. Great job!

Great track
Cool odd time signature groove.
Nice take....I like this better than the original...
Dig the reference to Henley singing about Forgiveness...;)
Has an almost Sitar like quality....very unique sound.
Very cool.
Dramatic and suspenseful
Nice song all the way through.
Oh yes those are LP's allright. Sound great!

This would great in a Tim Burton film.....nice composition.
