Neil Young cover

I've been in such a creative funk for the last year or so, one of our friends in the Coffee House Forum suggested I cover a favorite song to try to get the music machine started.
So I thought about which Neil Young song to do that hasn't been done to death and came up with "Don't Let It Bring You Down".
A quick project (and it sounds like it, too) and my singing will make Neil seem like Caruso in comparison, but it's on my web site:

The BGV is Vocaloid Miriam. I'm stll having a fit with trying to make those girls sound real.
 
Comments, suggestions and cash to make me stop torturing you are welcome.     

nice job Greg, those are some mean high vocals! sound isn't bad for a quick production, a little more work to make it sound a bit warmer would be handy, but has it worked? got any creative juices flowing? listening to the second song on your player now, and this is awesome! loving the guitaar work and the retro-synth is also brill! you clearly have plenty of talent!

Greg ....
 One of my favorites as well.  Done just as Neil like's it! Sounds like you've got Neil down pretty well and I'm impressed!
( I listened to your other tunes as well )

One of my first multitrack recordings were Neils "Tell Me Why" and "When you Dance". I used to sing "Southern Man", "Down by the River", "Cow Girl in the Sand", "Cinnamon Girl" and "Like a Hurricane"

Really Nice Greg!!!

Greg..went to listen..clicked on the music tab on your site, but all I get is a couple of blank boxes appearing (couple of times now0 I'm a NY fan as well, so..help me out here please...

Greg,
Nicely done sir. I'll have to play this for a friend sho is a big Neil fan.
Hope this acts as the jump start you were looking for.

Hmm... I can't say why it didn't work for you 3 but did for Thatsastrat. No one else has needed to log on. I don't have to log on unless I want to edit the site.
But thanks for trying.
Thatsastrat, thanks, I hope so, too. And I hope it makes your friend appreciate Neil even more.

Way to go, Greg!  :-)  Nice job!

Fusion?  Is that a new drink?

Thanks, Song Writer.
Glad you got your technical glitch fixed before the Geek Squad got there.
 
Janet, it's a Gillette razor, I think.

Overall, I liked it, Greg. But I would EQ the whole thing a little brighter. It sounds a little muddy to me. Roll off some lows and bring up the mids and highs. But the instrumentation and vox are great.

Light to Change is a solid tune too, well done.
Mark

I'll clear my calendar. :-)

No links for me either on the music page, just the box. The boxes were really nice, don't get me wrong, but no music to listen to.

Thanks, tatey. I probably will dredge up another one someday.
I wish I knew what was the problem with my site that causes some of you to be unable to get it... but I'm a guitar player, not a computer tech.
I'll have to call one of my brothers on that.
 
"I din't think Neil's slightly detuned falsetto vocal style to be closely mimic'ed, but you did a very good job."
 
Thanks, Alegria. I think. I'm glad you liked 'On The Beach', too. My first foray into a kinda jazz thing with a naked guitar.
Listened to some of your stuff, and now I know who that jc friend of mine is on FB.
 
I appreciate ya'll listening.

Hey Greg,

Finally got your music player to work for me!

I'm glad I came back...this is a great cover

of a cool song I'd kinda forgotten about. Great job.

Love the profile pic, too!

Thanks.
