1983Fest (banner image missing)



One for the 1983 fest. Got it down to three chords but was still a bugger to do. Recorded live in the living room to my ipad with some soft synths looping on my iphone.
Video here at facebook https://www.facebook.com/james.higgins.986/videos/1445792296238379 and audio extracted from video. excuse the many mistakes lol.

It is what it is.

Nice take on this. Cool arrangement.

Big album for me from my uni days though I didn't find it till '85. Surprised it's'83

Such a dreamlike feel, compared to the aggressiveness of the original. Cool take.

Wow, what a dramatically different feel from the original. I love that you took this and made it your own.

Missed commenting earlier - I love your LitLR take and the low-key synths on this. It works really well.

Nice one, James!
