Scared - Gnasty covers Vanncad - Tributefest II

[Gnasty]

I really have gone into risky and deadly waters even thinking about covering Vann the man.
But i wanted to challenge myself. I know i`ll never come close to his wicked voice but I
wanted to try. I love every song he has ever written but wanted to do an acoustic for
a change so decided on this. I did it kinda the same but i fingerpicked the right pan
guitar and added smoothsteel from thumbjam for a sorta different feel.

Here`s Vanncad`s  song https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=3876.msg42350#msg42350

I hope you like it my Canadian friend! Come back as soon as possible after you get your
Studio/ Panic room/ Bomb shelter/ beer fridge/ lingerie room/ Grow-op finished!!  

Enjoy!

Excellent cover of a fabulous song! The Thumbjam steel guitar is a nice addition. Gives it a bit of a country-rock sound.

This is a cool cover Gnasty, you give it a Blue Rodeo vibe, I really like this.

Blimy Eric , you darn near pulled out all the stops on this one mate , it's interesting to hear an electric player whose style & technique sounds just as good , if not better to my ears , when playing acoustic .
I'm sure Van the man will love this cover , you've more than done yourself proud on the vocal front , I'm knocked out at what a versatile musician you are , & you just get better .
5 Stars all round my Maple leaf friend

[Vanncad]

Wow - Eric - my eyes are wet. Thank you! I'm truly honoured.

64 sent me note to let me know someone covered one of my songs, but I never expected this!

You really did something special with this song. That steel is exactly what this song needed. I love the vibe.
I couldn't play a solo like that if I took lessons from Yngwie Malmsteen for a year!

Thanks for taking the time to do this. It sounds incredible!

I really love the layers of sound you built up and everyone is right - you've got a really great voice!

I don't really know what else to say - except damn!
Thank's again. You just made my day.


P.S. - the grow-op is done, just have to get some heat lamps for it.

Glad you got the message right away and thanks for that 64!

I`m happy with my recording but my acoustic isn`t the best sounding. A new one
is in order one day. Glad you l;iked it Vann. That made my day!!
