    you did this great tune justice...I would do two quick things that will help the mix over all...push the main vox up a tad bit more (maybe just add a little midrange) and pull the bass back a bit...love the chorus...
     
    nice...nice tune

    I agree about bringing the vocals up and adding some mids to them. You sound a lot like Young actually, especially on the high notes during the chorus. It was a good performance you should be proud of.

    That is a very good version. Guitars sound nice and crisp. the vocals could maybe come up a touch, but then again, I can hear every word, so maybe not.

    I like it. Nothing wrong with doing a cover just like the record once in a while. You got it pretty close.

    Thanks everyone for the feedback. I know it wasn’t an exact copy of Neil’s and my vocals are lame but I sure had fun doing it.

    This a very good cover of the original.  I like the wide separation that you have on the L & R guitars.  Very good job indeed.

    Nice cover...    I wanted to (and did) listen all the way thru, so I think that sums it up!
     
    Both Neil and Jimmy Fallon would be proud.

    Great cover...  I would bring up the vocals a little bit.
