Mangling The Classics #11

Put this together tonight, needing Power Chord Therapy to vent the seething wrath I feel towards my employers lately.
But, I sorta forgot what this song actually sounds like, so I hope it's even close. :oops:
Don'tcha love how I captured Young Neil's shaky, out-of-tune vocals; screechy git'r playing; and feeble solo abilities? :oops:
And yes, the pitiful punch-ins are my own artistic touch... :oops:

Recorded all on GNX4 except for the handclaps. I used the Britstack preset, which I've diddled for my own liking since I got it. Used my Jackson Performer, MXL990 condenser mic, my Peavey Grind bass.

  • Wow! You really captured the Neil Young sound with this one…harmony parts were right on…Guitar parts sounded great…Hope all is well with your employment problems…it always seems to me when people move on they usually do better in the long run…keep on making music. :):):)
  • Nice one mate, liked the tones, always like your take on the classics.

    I actually like your voice too. 8)

    I gotta check out some more Neil Young tunes 8)
  • Young Neil, despite his inability to sing, play guitar, or solo, is a brilliant songwriter. He and Bob Dylan should be golf buddies. :roll:
    But Neil has some brilliant songs that are fun to play and good to cover...check out Needle And The Damage Done, Love Is A Rose, Cortez the Killer, Helpless, Ohio (I mangled that one), the guy's written about 1000 songs...
  • Nice Job Shredd!! 8) I thought this sounded real good man!! 8) Nice job on the Solo I liked it!! Did not sound feeble to me? Good vocals to :D Just good overal job bro!! Hope things start looking up for you at your work situation!! 8)

    I couldn't agree more. I started a thread a long while back about musical \"geniuses\". I noted Neil and Blackmore (among others), since they proved they were the driving force between their original bands and subsequent bands.
  • shreed, Another gret classic, very well done and good vocals. Really enjoyed this one, brings back good memories. Don't let the boss get you down, he was probably having a bad day and vented on you. Enjoy the day and play music. :D:D John
  • What a great song. You gave it just that right amount of feel with the harmonies and your guitar tones were kewl too...The lyrics in this song a so feekin brutal Rawkon :twisted:
