Puff the Magic Dragon?

Or is it "Punk" the Magic Dragon?
 
I did this a while back. I tried to fix the mix as best I could from what it was to what it is now. I was not going to re-record anything. Just apply some newly learned techniques.
 
Anyway, a fun cover.

BTW - That's my not so great vox.

Notation, the original DAW. Everything else is just rote. We are who we are and no more than another. Humans, you people are crazy.

    Fun!

    I was expecting the vocal to be shouted/screamed while listening to the intro.

    Great fun!

    Cheers,
    Terry.

    Ok I had to listen to this, don't worry about the vocals, we can say the vocals are meant to be that way, honestly what drugs were you on, a combination of dexamphetimmes and valium.

    Very funny, you have cheered me up good job.

    This is really cool! I love a fun cover and this tune hit straight home

    I actually think your vocals were perfect for this version. Very charming in all that heavy riffing.

    Thanks for listening. I would hope that Peter, Paul and Mary would think it's a hoot. Just my way of paying them homeage.

    It's more interesting than the original.  I too expected the vocals to scream in a punk fashion.

    I also do this.... but as a fast fingerpicking tune.
