Cover #1 'More than a feeling' - Instrumental version (Boston)

Details

Description

A few weeks ago, after I finished building the electric 12-string, I messed about with playing along with the Boston track 'More than a feeling' that features a classic 12-string accompaniment, with the 12-string and the semi-hollow Les Paul copy I also built.

I uploaded a video to facebook and YouTube. Steve Lilygreen mentioned - correctly - "There's something like 13 guitars on this song you'll have to make more lol"

Never one to shy from a challenge, and wanting a chance to feature all the guitars I've built, (including one refurbished and rebuilt - the strat copy - and my original acoustic) I decided to give it a go!

EVERYTHING you hear, apart from the drum track (I have my limits) is all me. Acoustic guitar, 12-string guitar, three electrics and bass and a fair bit of guitar fills and harmonies.

Days of Garageband recording (and re-recording) and a son-in-law Jon Greening who has expertly added a production value and mix in his home studio that I could only dream of, and it is finished.

I would have liked to have added vocals but the range is far too high and would have seriously distracted from the rest of it. So you'll have to put up with a guitar instrumental instead of vocals.

As someone who was pretty much 'carried' in his time with Beyond the Bars I have surprised myself. Wish I had put this effort in years ago!

Well here is the result.
