Kansas Demo Cover

Fellow Wheathead Mike Goble wanted to cover a Kerry Livgren tune that Kansas never recorded for release.  A demo version of the song has been around for a long time, so it was used as the template for the cover track that I produced in SHS 4.  I used EZD using the Nashville Kit, NI B4 for organ, my Yammy MU80 sound box for Bass and the guitar amp is an original Tech21 Sansamp.  No acoustic instruments were used.  The tune is called Another Slant

    Great vocals!  Wow--sounds like you've been doing this for awhile.  :-)  Heck, it all sounds good to me.

    Long time no see Bill!

    This is excellent stuff. Love your guitar tone. I was going to suggest the vocals came up a smidge, but actually I can pick out every syllable, so I think it's probably right on for the genre.

    Holly crap!  I jsut listened to "Carry on My Wayward Son"...... Much better than the original.   Was that all done on HS4?  I'm sooooo depressed.....

    I didn't know about this song - thanks for doing it!  Sounds really good!  It has that great Kansas feel.
