Oh Wow! When I saw this I just knew - and I am not at all disappointed, you've exceeded my expectations.

You really do know how to do this. Harmonies, instrumentation, playing, recording, production. It has it all.

Well, I knew how this would turn out even before I pressed the play button, lol. And I was right! An absolutely stellar performance and production. It sounds (to me) like the Beatles doing a cover of it. A Strawberry Fields vibe in parts. You couldn't have done this any better, my friend. Those harmonies alone are to die for. And the harpiscord-sounding part is pure class.

A thousand WOWS!

Mindblowingly awesome!! Love everything about this, and I agree the harpsichord sounds are perfect.

Your attention to detail is amazing, absolutely loved this cover!

Thanks for the kind comments, guys.   :)

The 'harpsichord sound' is actually an old acoustic guitar set up Nashville high-strung and capoed up to the 4th fret which puts it in an even higher register... then flat-picking single notes through the chords.

And hats off to Mick and Keith with probably a lot of uncredited help from Brian for inventing this great song, simultaneously a dirge and a celebration.

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.
