Nice job. I thought you'd do it Peter Gabriel style but I'm glad you didn't. Vocals sound great.

And I love the guitar playing, Alfredo. Is that you or band-in-a-box? Either way, it sounds great.

Well done, both of you.

Dynamite cover, gents! I think this is my favorite collab between you two. I love the percussion and the lap steel/slide - a great combination!

I love this Beatlesfest!  :)

I got a heads up on this gem already. This sounds so astounding. Your vox on this Jim just leave me speechless.

Alfredo...you make amazing sounds with that band in the box. Those drums sound surreal.

This is an awesome collab from you guys again. Love it!! ;D

Another winner.  Really enjoyed that.

It's funny, I'm not normally a fan of pedal steel but it works great here.

Well done! Corageous to bring a modern flavour to this classic. Miss the Mellotron in the beginning, but that's OK. WELL DONE!

.....remixed!  :D

Here I am again, and again in company of Jim's wonderful voice!

Someone here suggested us to make a cover of this, so it wasn't right to disappoint such request!

Dear sessantaquattrochitarre, this time it's me on the acoustic (rhythm) guitar, while for the pedal steel, the "dreaming" (???) guitar, bass and drums I've used, as usual, BIAB.

Working with BIAB it's something like painting. You have so many colours to choose, but it's up to your taste, your experience, your feeling the decision about what colour, in what place, and how...I mean, yes, it's computer aided music, but if you want good results the role of the human being in front of the computer is absolutely fundamental. The same as Autocad, in different matters...

Enjoy!

FMGWABIAB!

I am such a sucker for pedal steel. I thought I needed to buddy up to a live person who played the instrument. No, I just need GAS.

ORH: Wonderful vocal treatment.

BTW: Those background vocals make me imagine Gringo's avatar singing along with you.

Wow, a wonderful treatment of this classic. Works so well with that country twang. So glad I got a chance to hear this cowboy on acid version!
