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

Gene has done a superb job with the music and the mix ....i had the easy job of singing it...bought back a lot of memories of youth and Motorbikes hoe you enjoy as much a s we did doing it..........
More ambient experimentation with my fretless guitar and Roland GR20. This time I used some sounds from the magnetic pickups as well as the midi pickup. Kind of a cheesy synth patch I know, but it was working for me!
A little something i rustled up the other day and finished off today!
Fender Jass Bass,Fender Strat played through a pod through a simulated tube amp,drums programed using ezdrumer,howls and sreams in pain,cheers!
I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…
I trust this song is an encouragement to you...we are not alone.
There is an intimate Divine closeness that we are invited into...moment by moment.
I am so thankful for this...
You are with me now
You are with me now
Within this sacred moment…
This is a collab song with MTC. I almost hated adding anything to it cuz the first track he sent me was kickass vintage Jim. It totally changed flavors in the collab process, but still one of my favs
M E L I S S A Key of G
These are letters I like to say - M E L I S S A
These are notes I like to play……
Letters that sparkle. Notes that jingle
Make a little song in my heart
There’s a song in my heart today - M E L I S S A
I wish…
Didnt mean to have a political slant but had just got denied my large order soft drink in Manhattan.
All thats left are the small sodas with the "NY loves big cans" tee shirts

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!

Like it better than the original. One of the best covers done here. Slays!
Oh you need to get some lyrics on this asap! I dig it.
That synth guitar can be addicting but when you find something that feels right its hard not to go with it. This is awesome.
Nice arrangement. This is another gem.
Hell yeah. That is sweet.
How cool is that! Superb once again.
Always enjoy this power blues. It has renegade whiskey breath of fire strapped on!
Oooh...soundscapes ...love it.
Alice was just in town. Nice take on this one gents!
That is a beauty! Sweet vocal and harmony..love the added colours and crisp recording.
The Mac..new it had that british blues sound from the start. Bitchin tune. Like that solo in there.
Spacey blues take on this one...very cool...has a ZZ top feel in the vocal.
Spot on double guitars and punch again...very cool subject matter and writing.
Enchanting once again. Such a pleasant message.
Very Jeff Beckish !
These are great collabs you done did do gents! Way to think.outside the box and add all these cool elements.
Has a almost Floyd like feel. This is superb collab. Love all the guitar colors.....they are everywhere.
Cool tune. What a refreshing throw back.
love the message here. we are at a crossroads....we are being controlled by special interest. love this!
layin it all out there! Nice rythym.in your vocal!
