My cover version of the 1980 Genesis tune "Turn It On Again". Done in Sonar X3 in my home studio.
Enjoy!

Mark,
 
Nice cover, you did a great job throughout.   Actually started a cover of this song a few weeks back so will put it back on the burner for awhile;)     Your vocals are really good, including the harmonies at the end.   I might only add some Collins effects to the vocals to add a little dimension but they are sung very well...  Really like it..
 
Regards

quite nice.  I was lucky enough to see them play this for 250 people at the Roxy, in January 1980, and I got to have dinner with the band and crew there, followed by seeing them the next night from up on the left side of the stage at the Greek to a sold out show, followed by the 'after party'.  Mike Rutherford was super happy to have gotten one of the brand new digital guitar tuners, and he had his 5-year old daughter with him on the tour.  Super fun.
 
Very nice job on the tune - brought back all the memories instantly for me.  I went and listened to a bunch of your other tunes too, and LOVE your voice.

Yet, another gem!  You often make me like these songs better than the original.  I wish all artists that do covers would listen to your repertoire to get a feel for doing great covers.  That being said, I loved the original song you posted earlier, too.

It is not a bad cover works here, thanks for sharing.

Thanks everyone!
Robert I have some friends that would be very envious of your story. They are absolute Genesis fanatics! Some even played in Genesis tribute bands,
What an amazing opportunity. You saw them right before they really mega big with ABACAB and the 1983 self-titled Genesis album. I was in Europe when that one came out and I had never seen an album dominate the airwaves like that! So many hits. Sadly I have never seen them live. I will have to settle for the DVD concerts!

Yeah this is solid.  Your voice is very much in the Phil Collins vein, who is one of the great prog vocalists natch.  I agree with the earlier comment -- you might want to increase the reverb a bit if you want to mirror the original recording.  Listening to some of your other stuff as well -- great execution and great song selection.
