@2003amxl you said that didn’t work, bloody liar! Ha ha

That was great, really inventive, got the Johnson thing down, was definitely GJWHF and some proper chops. Nice one!

Thanks Bezzer. The problem I had was bumping a 120bpm song up to a 170bpm shuffle, couldn't get the timing of the melody so had ditch a lot of it.

I though it was fairly obvious that it would sound great. You don't do something in the style of EJ unless you know what you're doing.

I've submitted a modest attempt with a rather pitchy vocal!

Is there any other type of recorded amateur vocal?

This reminds me of that Madworld cover a few years back, you could have a Christmas number 1 on your hands!

Struggling here, a good friend from another guitar forum died a few weeks ago and the thought of setting up my mic knowing he won’t ever hear what I record... well, you guys know what that’s like. Might get something done, might sit this one out.

Yeah, I think it's fair to say we know what that's like.  So sorry to hear that, hope you're doing OK, plenty of ears around here if you need them.

That's unbelievable - that you're on another guitar forum!

So sorry to hear that @westford .

Obviously we'd love to hear what you could record but totally understand. Poopot was always my fresh pair of ears for either out there cover demos or ear blind masters, so it's his fault if everything I now submit sounds like shit.

Take it easy. You've always got fresh and supportive ears here for music or anything else

Sorry for your loss @westford - I hope you are doing OK. Grief is an absolute fucker, we are all here if you need us.
