I liked these. I think you have a good voice.

I've done some Gaslight covers before but I always manage to screw up the lyrics somewhere (I have an over-reliance on internet-printed lyric sheets). I'd like to do Red At Night if I could figure out the harp or at least get something close.

Alright, I thought this was good too. Really good performance. Didn't particularly like the reverb effect on the guitar but if it was recorded in one take I understand the limitations.

But the vocals were great.

Yeah, well, I started doing The Navesink Banks and the echo sounded pretty good on the guitar for that. I just kept it on for Film Noir. I could have done two tracks, but I guess that was a bit of laziness on my part. Thanks for the listen and compliment, man.

Nice. I like that you altered the melody enough during the verse so it's not a carbon copy of the original. Also, I think it's a nice song choice. I guess there aren't as many Film Noir covers, I don't know.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm going to be doing some video covers just so I can get on Youtube and have some form of video of me playing songs online. One of these is almost definitely going to be a Gaslight song, so I'll post that here when it happens. These audio covers using the slapback echo are just for fun, and I'll likely do some more at some point.

Just recorded Here's Looking At You, Kid. Not much different from the original, but I think it came out alright.

I covered Red Sky Night on a demo I made. Not sure what im going to do with it though.

Thought it'd be worth mentioning that I played Old Haunts at a gig last Saturday. I frequently pepper my sets with Gaslight covers, but this one was special because to my knowledge it's never been played live before...by anyone.

Just uploaded an acoustic cover of The '59 Sound. Check it out if you want.

I like it!
Have you taken any voice lessons? It could do wonders for your technique, and I say that because I think you have a great vocal texture and quality. It's smooth yet not milky, and has an edge without being too coarse. A little refining and I think it'd be outstanding!

No, I haven't. And most likely I won't in the near future, for monetary reasons. I will say that my voice could've been a bit more refined on that video. I should've warmed up a bit more first. Thanks for the kind words.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I want to get some vocal lessons, but can't afford it. But if you have some cash, if you search craigslist or w/e, sometimes you'll run across University students who can teach you and don't charge very much at all!
A friend of mine teaches voice and wants to learn guitar, so I hope to do a barter sort of thing with her. That depends on her finally buying a guitar though :\

I really wanted to hear someone do Bring It On acoustic, so I decided to do it myself.
