Our tribute to a great song.

Notes:

Bass-electric piano-drums: BIAB
Main rhythm guitar: Washburn J6
Shaft-style

guitar: Telecaster
Final solo guitar: Stratocaster

The intro is not part of the original song, it was just something that sounded good to me, so...

An immense THANK YOU, James!

Enjoy!

Alfredo

Zounds, another period-authentic sounding cover! I loved the electric piano and wah-wah rhythm guitar Alfredo, and James your voice is really purring on this one. Smooth, 60s R&B/Soul sound. Bravo, gents!

Really nice job with the jazzy guitar chords! And amazing that this song was such a hit in 1966 even though a bit far out from the pop rock mainstream. I remember a poster of Bobby Hebb with a white Gibson SG and had teen-age G.A.S. over that guitar for a while...
And very soulful singing from you, Mr Higgins!
