drathbun Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Well, Juan Carlos requested the tune so here goes. I had to find a place where the voices (octaves apart) and the guitar sit with my voice so I ended up on capo 4. I ended up putting down two SJ200 tracks; one with just the Travis style picking and the other with a lead following the tune and mixed them right and left. There's some compression, a bit of EQ and some reverb. The guitar part is using the iRig Acoustic Stage pickup and the vocal is with the Rode NT1 condenser microphone. I had never even thought of playing this tune before! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqj38F8BDZs&feature=youtu.be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanCarlosVejar Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Doug, Wonderfully and Perfectly done !!! I've been a S&G fan since childhood and your version turned out fantastic ... The J 200 sure rumbled my soul and bones ! I listened to it a few times in a row because it just sounded so great! Thanks for something so refreshing ... God Bless JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that video at 3am. It takes all day for my voice to get to the point I can carry a tune! :) Glad you enjoyed it, it was fun to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoSoxBiker Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Dang! That was awesome. It took no time at all for me to think Ennio Morricone and how your rendition of this song could have fit several things I've seen that featured his music very well.

Buc McMaster Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Well done, Doug! As I listened, a conundrum in the lyric I never noticed before struck me........ I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail.... Okay, pretty straightforward. But then in another verse, I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet.... and behind that, ...away, I'd rather sail away.... Okay Paul, which is it? Feet on the ground or off into the wild blue yonder? Just a goofy observation that I'm sure means nothing but the opposite ideas jumped out at me.

Lars68 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Lovely! Very well done. I could never learn to do a new song that well and fast. Impressive! Your music and video productions are very cool. Lars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just chalk it up to good. artistic tension and counterpoint. To be, or not to be... well which is it Shakespeare? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
