I was impressed as well and enjoyed listening. Excellent mix/vocals/guitar and everything in between. I also enjoyed listening to Seven.....not an easy one to cover. Well done Robbie!!



Thanks so much for the listen and comments, and for listening to more than 1! :-)

Darned fine job Robby! This is probably my favorite rendition of this song to date. Dang... How'd you do that..? Absolutely impressed. Fine voice, as usual. Much impressed. Oh... Did I mention I was impressed?



Darin you're too kind! Thanks, I worked on it for a bit... Mostly the drums? I hate the drums because everything else comes pretty easy (except the mixing) Thanks for listening and your generous comments.

Hey, Robby,
 
Killer job on this dynamite cover!  Great guitar work, excellent vocals as always, and the current mix sounds balanced, loud and clear.
 
I saw John Fogerty do this one live a few years back at a State Fair venue, and he still puts on a great show.
 
Really nice job, bro!
Bob



Big bad Bob! Yeah CCR is one of my "hero bands..." I really love the old stuff. I never saw them? I envy you for that. I'm so glad you liked it :-)

Just great, Robby.
 
The drums sounds perfect, all vintage-mixed and jangly.

Oh.... OH! I need a cigarette... I just creamed my jeans. I work so hard on my drums.

I was proud that some folks like the guitar sounds :-) There are many guitar tracks, mostly the electric (PRS shown below) through my line 6, set on "brit clean?" With an out to that little Roland cube to give some resonance through the body/strings.
 
And then in to the UA 610 pre with a little squeeze, and then the fireface. I think I added a little verb to it in the box too and some EQ. Then there was the acoustic 6, recorded M/S, I bused it and used the PSP warmer with the clean guitar setting (my favorite.) Panned things as appropriate and sent to an all guitars bus and then to the mains. The more I do this, the more busing I seem to do. 
 
I practiced for a couple of days to get my chops up to speed :-) Not a shreader, but I do like to strum and play the easy leads.

Oh and I almost forgot, this one is for Darryl. Miss Vida Guerra :-) There's "something" about her? I can't quite put my finger on it...

I am only "a guitar player..." (I'd like to be "the?" but I'm only a...)
 
:-) You'll hear it in this toon, and pretty much all of the others too. It's a great instrument. But it must be "played." It's a trick vs. many other tracks, you have to play it in? You can't snap it to a grid (you can but it f's it up...) you can't do many things you can with so many other tools we have at our disposal, you have to grab that thing by the neck "and choke it!"
 
You bang on it with the other hand (it's a pretty violent process actually?)
 
I'm actually probably a better bass player these days, and perhaps a better keyboard player :-) But I'm not "the bass player?" or "the keyboard player?" But the guitar was my 1st instrument... And we don't forget our 1st true love.

Great stuff - it's about time we had more Credence style sounds

I like the "raw" sound. It sounds like it has the energy of a live performance.
