Fuel - Shimmer

Post by borocks »

Here's a cover of one of my most favourite songs of all time:
Shimmer

I recorded it with my Les Paul. First cover with my electric. I know some of you despise the fact that I included a distored part ;)

still, thanks for listening,
Bo

Sounds Good.

Your voice fits well with the song and sounds pretty good throughout the song. You do go off key every once in awhile but that will get better with practice.

Nice job on guitar. I know it's not to difficult but it sounded good. Mixing sometimes can be tough.

8/10

good job on the vocals.

the guitar needs work, its too choppy. the changes need to blend better.

i like this but as always i think the electric detracts from it. i would only ever use an electric if i was playin full band or if was playin somethin tastefull and fingerpicked

other than that it was terrific. great job man

edit: ugh i hate to do this, but what tab did you use? none i found seem to have the right chorus

Thanks for responding guys.

andy,
I used a tab that I made up myself. It's somewhere on my HD, can't find it right now though. I post it for you when I find it.
