Georgia On My Mind
I've always wanted to do a cover of this great song. This is somewhat of an experiment. I wanted to use my nylon Godin LGX - it has a synth pick-up and I've never tried to record it - so I used that guitar on this song for the nylon rhythm part and then used a patch called Slow String for some background. I found the synth strings difficult to record properly. This is a really simple tune - not that much to it - I almost didn't post this - but figure - what the hell. So anyway - here is my version of Georgia On My Mind. http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=12551437&q=hi&newref=1 Thanks for taking a listen.

It's our state song :-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_on_My_Mind When you enter the state, there's a sign that says "Welcome to Georgia" and below it it says "We're glad Georgia's on your mind." A beautiful song... Well played Mark.

Mark,
I listened to this twice. This is such a great song and you did it so well that I'm going to listen for the 3rd time.
Great job buddy!

Hey, thanks everyone.
Like I said, a very simple tune - but so beautiful - tough for this one not to sound good.
Thanks again for taking the time to listen.

Mark,
Great job, playing is really good. I like the arrangement as well. Very nicely done. Personally I would like it a lot more without the swirling strings in the background. It isn't the strings per say but the phaser or whatever modulation is on them. It is distracting from your beautiful playing.
Regards

Really really nice. Nice pace. And of course some great guitar playing. And I like the strings - adds some depth to the stage.

Excellent work and interpretation of this song. You just have some of the best phrasing on the guitar that I have ever heard.
Brilliant!!!

Great job Mark. I am tired after a long week but laying back listen to your guitar is just what I need.
Mellow and tasty. Sounds great.

That's really lovely Mark. Perfect tone and phrasing, really heartfelt playing. Don't like those strings though, they don't really add anything IMO. A simple Hammond might do the job.
