@Daryl & Mesh - Thanks for the comments. Have you guys considered getting a room to discuss pinkies?

This takes me back. This is very good! It seems slow to me but it could be that we always played it fast. lol! It's been a long time since I heard the original.

Well done! The vox are excellent!

Robert,

I think we were about 2BPM slow. I considered speeding it up after final mix, but I'm a lazy lout.

Thanks for listening.

Hey Bapu, nice job.  it's so hard to do covers and in particular Beatles covers.

Everything is there, I think the bass instuments need a lift though.  Maybe remove the verb on the drum.  The Beatles very rarely used verb on their drums.  Just a suggestion.

Nice though.

Peace Ben

I have to add that most versions of day tripper I have heard performed live and on "tape"  do not play the bass line properly on this song ....


Please take note at Bapus exceptional and precise bass playing on this fun cover

Ed,
 
Good one.   Fun song and very enjoyable.   I would change one thing though, had to throw one in;).   On the verses I would push the tamborine a bit.   Choruses and fills it is right on, but it seems like it is just keeping time on the verses, where it could drive the song a bit in the verse if it was pushing a bit and adding some syncopation.   Still, great cover...  Liked it very much.
Regards

Awesome cover! The bass needs to come up a bit it. Absolutely great job on the vocals. I think that is what carries the song.
