I challenged myself!...do a cover of CARRY ON from CSNY I'm doing it...but not easy with the voices


so I gave myself a little break with Stephen Still's 4+20 which is in the same tuning as "carry on"

it is an ambivalent DADDAD (or EGEEGE) tuning there is no third note in this tuning, it is an  chord widely used by CSNY including in Judy blue eyes

 Thanks Alex and Farrell.

QuoteI also look forward to hearing Carry On.


Farrell...I have a lot of trouble with carry on voices: there are 3 or even a few times 4...and I don't have the score
I'm also a rather average singer

I can do without too much difficulty the backtrack with drums (BIAB) bass, guitar strum in DADDAD and solo guitar (standard tune)
If the voices are too "approximate", maybe I'll call on SC's distinguished singers.  :)

I'm not familiar with the original, but this is brilliant! So well performed!

Very good... very atmospheric. Loving the slightly drone feel of one of the notes in the guitar picking. Nothing wrong with the singing! I can imagine this in a movie somehow.

That guitar is beautiful. I'm half tempted to try that tuning just to have a different feel. Thanks for sharing.
