Nice cover, well mixed, well performed and you can't ask for more than that:)

The only thing I would change is that drum fill around 2:10-2:11, to me the fill breaks the momentum of the verse.     I would start the drum groove without the fill at 2:10, maybe put a short fill ahead of that 2:10 mark to give a hint the drums and bass are coming.   But really fantastic work, had a couple listens through.

Great recording and playing on this. Youtube has  better audio than Soundcloud.  Has a great live feel to it since you tracked it while playing the main parts. Hat's off to you for such nice work!

anders, I love your voice, so emotionally true.  Do you perform anywhere?

Thank you, David.
I used to. Nowadays, I've got a real job  , and do not gig much live. It happens from time to time.

Very nice and well performed. I would drop all of the drums and backing.  Enjoyed it ..  mark

For me the distraction is that first kick, it hits pretty hard.

Beautiful song and well performed.  Your vocals are excellent!

Made me all misty eyed. Really really good performance.  I think you could have left out the drums but that's just me.

I think John Prine is one of those under appreciated artists who most people discover by accident, but once discovered you become an immediate fan.

Hi Anders,

I've never heard of John Prine but really like this song.

Your voice is wonderfully mellow.

Thanks for sharing.

Good job!

Regards

Wow what a great song, not heard that before. I don't think you needed the additional  instruments either - this song is all about the vocal and you 100 per cent nailed it. Sublime vocals and BGVS too, also enjoyed the guitar work - what's the acoustic you're playing BTW - I have a feeling I might know but would be interested to find out?

Really lovely stuff, look forward to hearing more.

Thank you very much, everybody.
Andy: I used two guitars: The one you see, is a Martin GPCPA 1 and out of sight, is a Martin D15M.
I might have, at least I wanted to, use an ukulele: That is some Ibanez model.
The bass is a Sandberg electra VS4, and the color is "Creme"

I was betting Martin or Taylor - sounded great
