Temptations(fest) - My Girl (rough take)

[T.C. Elliott]

A very quick recording.. got the idea while playing on the acoustic. Would love to add the solo I hear in my head and maybe even the modulation, but will probably just leave it as is.

Time:

0:00

I'm a big fan of the original by The Temptations. Perhaps the perfect pop song.

However, if you were complete this Stooges groove with drums and a whiny guitar solo, my head would explode.

This is a totally left field approach to covering this song!
Now, 1st of all I indeed do like this cover that you've made.
And, I feel that it will continue to grow on me....
But, the original is GOLD!

LG: Are you familiar with song, I Wish It Would Rain? It's another gorgeous song by The Temptations that I believe is the sequel to My Girl.

Sunshine, blue sky, please go away,
My girl has found another, and gone away
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom,
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room

And listen to the musical references to My Girl; the bass, the strings, etc.

Sorry about the threadjacking, PFJ.

It's all good. I'm actually re-recording this but got stumped on drums. Stupid drums. I have a guitar part, bass part and guitar solo all to a click. If I get drums for it and can record the vox again I'll post an update. Lots of ifs there.

Yes Ted, I see what you mean....And I agree.
PF I can't wait to hear your updated take....

This is what the temptaions would soundlike today if no motown existed
back in the 60 s. very creative. nice flavor. think though it could stand
a bit more bass line but keeping in with the same tempo u have here.
if u intedn to do a finished version . jus tmy opinion  but well done  and
enjoyed it tc NEIL
