Hi All

This is my first post to the covers forum, hope you like it, Pale Blue Eyes by the Velvet Underground.

I made the backing track and a good friend of mine sang the lead vocal, I think he did a pretty good job!

It's no Kenny this time, it's a good friend of mine called George, I spent ages telling him his the vocal was good... finally managed to persuade him to let me post it after boosting the volume on my very bad backing vocal ..lol ...I can post the backing track to collaborations if anyone wants a go at it.

Thanks for all the great comments.

I will do Jim, might take a while but I've already got something in mind ;-)

I know exactly what song it will be Kenny :-D and I'm looking forward to it.
