steve@baselines.com Posted Friday at 09:32 PM Share Posted Friday at 09:32 PM Hello all - been a while since I've been back. Time to catch up again! This is a cover from one of my favorite old albums, Trilogy by ELP - this one had some success on the charts. https://baselines.com/?p=7262 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Seymour Posted yesterday at 12:12 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:12 AM I've always liked this song since back in the day. Some thoughts... Hearing some background noise / hiss in the acoustic guitar. It could be a tad fuller in the bass too. The vocal processing sounds more 80s than 70s. In my admittedly dated opinion, it makes it sound less personal. This is a very nice cover! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
equality Posted yesterday at 12:56 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:56 AM I haven't heard this one in a long, long time. A very nice flashback. It's striking how similar the opening fagioletto chord is to Yes' Roundabout. You do a great job on this, one of the best by ELP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for listening and your useful comments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the exact same harmonic chord for both songs on the twelfth fret. Thanks for listening! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark skinner Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago Great song to cover! I don't think I've ever known an acoustic player who didn't learn at least the intro to this one. Heard your Great covers , and think you could "nail" this one with a little more work. Nice .. ms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
