Title: Stars (Rauli Badding Somerjoki, 1983)

Here's a quick one. I'm really digging the Neural Amp Modeler so i had to scrap something together :)

The left side guitar is Supreme fuzz 1972 into an "amp" and the right side is Bat (Rat). Other than these it's 100% Neural Amp doing the heavy lifting.

The original song is from 1983 and known as Tähdet, Tähdet. I found an english version (of which i had trouble hearing all the words. Hence the repeats on the second verse :)). The original is the best...

holy shite man.... you are taking your stuff way out into the rock and roll strat o sphere....

is this the Scorpions?  Is this Robert Palmer?  Is this a forgotten Billy Idol?  Nah... there is a rocker from the Fin land... who is better than the rest...

this almost sounds like it has Leslie organ in it... kind of like Uriah Heep... oh my... my head is taking me places... I wouldn't want to be eating any mushrooms and listening to this... this has to be straight with maybe some caffeine...
the bass and kick are punching holes in my wall

I'm very familiar with the original and this is even better, because this is rock!! Excellent idea to turn this to rock style, like it a lot! The original is a real evergreen Finnish song...

Bravo Zoltan!

This rocks like a motherf*cker. You're wrangling some great distortion tones out of those pedals. Heavy but tuneful, and I like the drama of the song and performance. Great!
