Nice one Blooby... this sounds a great live performance. A guitar a voice... what more do you need.

Oh yes. Love the original, and you boys deliver the goods on this cover with exceptional talent and style. Brilliantly done, and a real pleasure to listen to. Love it when you let those notes ring out.

Thanks, guys.

Saw Neal Morse (a contemporary prog guy) do an acoustic version of this one day and thought it would be fun to cover. I have wanted to do an electric version of it for a while, but time always seems to be an issue.

Perhaps somebody should now channel Bingo, the orange Banana Split, to do their theme song.

Peace.

very nice, if you're ever insterested in doing a more "electric" version, i'd be glad to provide the bass and drums for it. perhaps some backing vocals.

This great man.
Love the muted strings on the acoustic.

That vocal is really good.
Cool cover!
It ain't pretty being easy.

Your vox is as good as I've heard anywhere!  Really superb.  Either you've had training or you are channeling someone who has.

Guitar playing and production values are all there too.

Thanks for this cover.  I'd forgotten that I liked some of the Monkey music.
Let it be known, there is a fountain, that was not made, by the hands of men.
