sweeeeet sound, i dig that guitar. your voice sounds fine, you're better than me. i like the percussiveness as well - i'm assuming thats the tab here? i cant make out the high D or whatever with the 10 on the E. not too shabby at all mate

edit to ask what you're recording with?

and again because i posted this before i heard the backround vocals at then end, which are also sweet. nice job man.

Miguel
i think you have done the best dave covers (like IBYU and now BOWA) i've ever heard, i love your voice, its your own, not trying to be dave or anything
great guitar work - keep it up!

That was awesome... something about hearing other people makes you feel like you suck. You're by far my favorite on the board man.

I really liked how you transitioned with the A-3-2-1. You were very careful with the high notes and pulled it off great. I loved the backup vocals too. I'm working on Cry Freedom now and planned to incorporate the same kinda thing...hopefully it works as well as yours.

Kick ass job, I'm ready to hear more...peace

Wow...that was good.

Thanks

Voice and chorus sound great, the verse sounds good too but it just sounds different. You playing it differnet at all, or just letting more strings ring out, it just sounded different, I dunno, good still. Very fun to listen to, nice job again man.

I also posted before I heard the background vocals, they were real good to, made it that much better

Trippin Hillbilly · Post by **Trippin Hillbilly** » Thu Jun 24, 2004 9:05 am

thanks guys.

I played it half a step up cause I think this song sounds better that way. Also I used alot of percussion and I added little bits and pieces here and there so that's probably why the verse sounds different.

great as usual miguel!

i know it's hard to compare since the song and probably recording setup is different, but your guitar sounds different. the bass seems to have more pop and may be slightly brighter.

anyway, this will definitely go into my ipod also!

btw, if you still have your watchtower cover around, could you post it?

thanks!

thanks man..
Yeah I can thank my new bone saddle for that..
I'll try repost that watchtower cover tonight when I get home...but I gotta warn you.
It's pretty old and not very good. I'll do it tho.
thanks again.
