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

I was flapping around working on something else with just vocal and guitar the other day. It wasn't going well, so I just started slapping the guitar and singing one of my favourite songs.
What I didn't realise was that I was recording it…
My first completed 2013 RPM track. Thanks to Kavin for turning a simple acoustic song into what you hear today.
ONE LAST DANCE
I never got to tell you what's been on my mind
It might be just as well now that we're running out of time…

Celebrating my 1 yr. on this site. This just came out of the blue. Nothing planned here.
Thanks to all of you for your support and listening ears!

I'm not sure if John really had intended to write a funny lyric, but we thought it was funny - and so this became a funny song. At least I think so. :)
In the beginning there was a stupid little synth demo. This is what became of it with a…
While I was going through my old stuff I found this forgotten tune. I think it was the first or second collab I've ever done with Billy Playle. We met at a long gone collaboration site called OMF (OpenMusicFactory, run by Alessandro da Lisca…

Oh it caught me by surprise
I Looked into your pretty eyes
Nothing more than a simple kiss
And a moment like this
We don’t need no fancy cars
Diamond Rings that shine like stars
You never really asked for more
Than moments…

Sorry I think its actually the song Raging River of fear by Captain Beyond these riffs remind me of.

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!

Back again....
Hit the spot. Really good track.
Very distinct style you cats are throwin down.
Like the loose feel studio sound.
Great vocal. Dig the stripped down arrangement.
It woke all the kids up! :)
This would bring the room down! Set it on fire! Killer!
Always a great listen:)
Unique take on that own. Nice choice.
A uke....nice choice.
Her hunting crop....love the lyrics...;)
This is a very moving piece of music. Excellent.
This has a showgaze quality, almost CSNY feel or Love. Sweet tune.
Like the mood created in the verse and the bridge is killer.
Great tracks. Tight arrangements.
Michael McDonald all over this. Dig it.
Like this alot. I would say this one you captured the mood perfectly. Very nice .
A very subtle Neil Young quality to your voice.
Sorry for the loss. This is a thoughtful tribute.
Enjoying the mix....well done once again.
