MorrisrownSal Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Hey all... Anyone want to share their stab at this Fleetwood Mac tune? I just tried it. This is one take recorded on my iPad and Garageband with an Apogee USB Mic. I don't have Buckingham's chops, so the version I did was dumbed down a bit. I also played with a thumb pick and two metal fingerpicks, and fingerpicked it. You can tell my alternating thumb still is not perfectly clean, nor is my fingerpicking :) Anyhow, here is my version: https://soundcloud.com/sal-from-chatham/never-going-back-again Hope you like it, and I look forward to hearing your takes. EU I can see your group playing it and doing it a bit faster than I did, with some nice brushes on a cajon for percussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdd707 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Good Job Sal on a song that is certainly a challenge to do solo! As our overseas friends would say "good on ya" for keeping the weekly thing going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duluthdan Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Never heard this song before. Sounds good. Also sounds complicated. Nice recording, nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorrisrownSal Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Yikes. 2nd listen of myself - pitchy! Thanks guys. Google the song. There is a 2010 video where Lindsey plays a Taylor. Stevie Knicks and Mick Fleetwood are in it as well. That's a great version if I could learn it and sing it at the same time: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindboygrunt Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Got the guitar part worked out .just need a few days to get the singing at same time. You picked a stinker this week sal. Great tune though. And my god what an earworm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorrisrownSal Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Sorry BBG. Seems I am not attracting much interest with my choices - which defeats the purpose. Glad you like the song. Why don't you pick a different one and I will follow your lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindboygrunt Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I'm definitely having a go.... Just need a day or two. I'll think about next week's. Someone else is bound to be trying this too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatbaroque Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I think your choices are good ones Sal.But it takes a bit of doing to get something together between other projects and general stuff.I've been trying to get a couple of things written for my Xmas CD which I give to a friends and family...makes a fine beer coaster. Even if this concept morphs into Song of The Fortnight or Song of the Indeterminate Time Period.It's still a nice idea. I was visiting my daughter yesterday and she had that Billy Bragg Wilco album on.Some suitable choices on that for the likes of us plonkers. Not sure if I'll get onto this one, but I look forward to hearing others. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnneS Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Sal--Don't despair! Song-sharing is still my favorite thing about visiting here, but I have hit a couple of challenges that have pulled me away. (Lost my mom a couple of weeks ago, was on vacation before that, and now I am having some vocal problems that I'll have to look into--nodes, maybe?) Anyway, if I can get my act together, I'll see if this one comes back to me (I did used to play it in some fashion, decades ago). Either way, I'm pulling for others to chime in, too--your version is very nice, indeed. Thanks for keeping the fire lit. Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gov Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I was visiting my daughter yesterday and she had that Billy Bragg Wilco album on.Some suitable choices on that for the likes of us plonkers. agree on that call. California stars, walt whitman's niece and ingrid bergman are all songs I'm working through. i'm new to the singing aspect of this having just been a strummer only for years on account of a terrible voice. getting older and wanting to mix in some singing and it's not as easy as i thought it would be. the FM song above is a cool one but way beyond my current skillset. i used to be able to play a fair amount of big love but i won't be attempting to add in singing on that one either... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZZp76M4NGc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
