Here's a cover of R.E.M.'s "Can't Get there from here". Any critique is more than welcome. https://soundcloud.com/bluzdog/cant-get-there-from-here. Thanks

Nice work, great song choice. Would've liked the lead vocal a touch sharper and more up front. Also a bit more treatment on the BV.

Thanks for checking it out rebel. I agree on the BV's especially on the chorus. I found the upper mids on the lead vocal a bit grating and spent some time pushing him back in the mix by request. I'll do a little more tweaking.

that's what I am talking about! The voice of your singer and the sound of the band works extremely well with this song. I agree with Rebel, very good song choice. Have you considered forming a tribute band?

Thanks Tom. I have an old friend in Hof, Rory O Connor. He owns Rory's Steak House. I've never been there but it looks like a rockin' place.

It is Hof / Bavaria, I guess? That is quite far from where I live. But if I should come around some day, I will check it out and let you know if it rocks or not!

Nice cover.
 
To me it seems like the rhythm guitar and bass (at times) are fighting for space. Put a little snap (+2db @ 1.5-2KHz) on the bass and it might be golden.
 
BGVs seem a bit muffled to me.

It's not easy to do REM, but you did them justice with this cover.  It sounds about right to me.  REM, inho, wasn't the best produced band of all time.  Their mixes were often muddy, and few could understand the lyrics.  But, that mostly was by design, and that sound became their trademark.  You may have done them one better.
