Title: Don`t Let it Bring You Down(Neil Young cover)- LitLR
Post by: Gnasty on September 18, 2014, 10:27:25 AM

I play this totally wrong but done quick. Haven`t had much time for music lately.

Initially I thought this was an anti-war song but i found no evidence of it.  >9|
Just recently watched Neil Young Journey rockumentary. I loved it. He didn`t do this tune though.

The song sounds vaguely known to me as not familiar with the vast majority of Neil Young's work.

Stunning performance this, keep hitting play after it ends so that I can take it all in again, your passionately delivered vocal over that strummed backdrop just makes it fly for me.

Great stuff Eric, and nice to hear you recording again.

Great to hear your Fab voice again Eric !! This is great! A stunning passionate performance.

One of my favourite songs of one of my favorite artists performed by one of my favorite songcrafters. What's not to like? ,?!?!

Wow, powerful voice there dude.  Crystal clear and pitch perfect.  Not a Neil Young like voice but, no problem, a really fine cover just the same.  In other words, you made it your own.  After I download this one, I'm going looking for your other posts.

Well done.

Excellent Gnasty! Man you belt out and hit those high notes with ease. A fine version and I the bit of drive you've put into the vocal. He he, for some reason I always thought this song's title was Castles Burning, lol. You acoustically rocked it well!

Man, you can SING. And PLAY! Love the recorded tone of the acoustic - really 'breathes'. But as others have pointed out, the vocal is stellar. Sheer talent my friend.
