I got a midi backer for this track and replaced crud sounding midi instruments for better samples and recorded and mixed all the guitars myself.. Bearman contacted me and said his missus ( Nightangel ) would do vocals and Laurie did the business, no mistake. Big thanks to Barry for giving the drums a bit more balls and mixing in the singing.
I love the original and hope you like this cover , mucho props to barry and laurie for their hard work.

Laurie will be pleased with your comments guys, she was a little tentative on this song at first. Jimmy gave her some helpfull suggestions and encouragement,which really paid off, class act all the way :thumb:
I'll make sure she checks the board when she get's home from work. I told Jimmy this before, but his guitars sound great on this track, just blew me away when he said he used a Roland Micro-Cube amp!

The 2 watt microcube records superbly well Barry and is tailor made for projects to host on gblast, having an audigy platinum soundcard helps somewhat also.The concept of using my sm57 mic in front of my Cornford Halfstack to record the music probably wouldnt be one my neighbours would relish !! :boobies:
Thanks for the gr8 comments guys, I appreciate you taking the time to post your thoughts and giving the track a listen :bowdown:

I see I'm going to have to supervise her for a while....:lol:

Really great teamwork on this. The mix is really full and clean with a capital C. This really stands on its own. Laurie's individuality as a singer stands out and it just has a extremely pure, musicality about the mix. The guitars are mixed in very organically. This will be looped here for a while!!

Its as obvious to me as a kick in balls that lauries voice will be in its optimum zone with more uptempo material, if somebody gave her a backer of bonnie tyler`s I need a hero, then I think the finished product would be simply as good as it gets.
I dont think the balladic slow stuff is her forte, its like there is a line she crosses and the V8 engine comes to life within her. Somebody give her a backer of Bette Davis eyes by Kim Carnes, my mouth would be drooling over that proposition.
