Title: ZOLTAN meet ELVIS (...and JP)
Post by: Jean Pierre on July 14, 2022, 12:03:15 AM
Zoltan

I didn't receive your files.
So I did the complete dressing of your voice/piano version, but the piano is still too loud
I added an electric guitar, a bass (from band in a box)
As the Jordanaires were not available, I took the backing vocals from BIAB  ;)
Elvis loved Hawaiian music so I think he would like to add a weissenborn guitar part (which is a Hawaiian slide guitar) :)

I hope you will like this version...if you can send me your separate tracks, it would be better for the lead voice/instrument balance

NEW UP DATE WITH THE LAST VERSION
))
,,And excuse me it's ZOLTAN ...not ZLOTAN (I made a confusion with ZLATAN (Ibrahimovic) :(

Hi Jean Pierre!

here is the final version with a new mix after Zlotan sent me his separate tracks, I lowered a little the volume of the piano and raised the volume of the voice, Zoltan also redid the bass with a Framus bass from the 70s

we can always do different ..and better but well, we'll move on and maybe make a new collaboration with Zoltan...collaborations are one of the major interests of songcrafetrs isn't it?

No worries! If i'd had more imagination i would have chosen that one as the forum name :)

JP did great things to this one! Turned it into a a proper song and arrangement. That Weissenborn guitar is glorious!

Spectacular.  A super hard singer and song to pull off, but this is pulled off at at top level.  And the slide guitar adds the perfect touch. Really, really, nice.  I'm going to listen to this several times for sure.   And I like both the posted versions. The auto-generated choir is really quite good!

A super cover Zoltan and JP! You do a good vocal impersonation of Elvis, Zoltan. And JP, the weissenborn guitar and the Jordanaires, besides sounding great, add a little Blue Hawaiian vibe to the song. Well done gentlemen!
