Matchstix Men (Status Quo Cover)

[launched]

Got this in my head from FH's reference in one of Greeny's postings. I'm probably one of the few people in my area that knew the Quo wrote the song and not Camper van Beethoven (Who I do like) or Type O Negative (Like them, too) and others. Think I have four covers of this song...

I didn't really clean it up too well, one take playing, no bass and had some mental blockage (Covers are tough - my first if you don't count the a capella Pilot disaster!) that prevented me from really getting anywhere with this. I have a few unfinished arrangements of my own that I'm working on which I'd like get back to again, for better or worse.

It all started with trying to get a striking match sound with an old pick I had.......

Peace,

I remember this from the original, Quo in their psychedelic era, it's one of the first things I picked out on my guitar in the late 60s. So I jumped straight on this one only to find.....there's no music? MP3 please!!!

Cheers,

Nigel

Had to repost - It's either IE8, or it's consistent with my frequent failure to attach a file to an email. I'll pick IE8......
