I should really have looked at the dates for the Bob Dylan fest - this is a song I wrote quite a long time ago but just got round to recording it today :)

Powerful, passionate stuff.

This will be going to the piPod.

It sounds like you recorded your acoustic plugged in, and not mic'd.  Am I right? Lately I've been experimenting with a combination, so I can find a blend between the pezio sound (which I like) and the mic'd sound.

Hello chaps

Yes the guitar is straight into my computer thro a motu 828 interface - I record into Ableton Live 8 Suite and I've used one of the reverb plugins and a compressor on it.

I used to record with Protools but I'm really impressed with Ableton Live and rarely go into Protools now.

Really glad you like the song - I feel a bit more confident with the acoustic thing now and your feedback has really helped - thanks again

you've captured that real dylan feeling in here. your voice though sounds a bit more like elvis costello than bob. a bob(ish) vioce was mayne not what you were aiming for.

Geir

That could absolutely have been an original Dylan song, but of course you sing way better :D

Cool one Trev!

I agree with Geir - the vocal's too good for Bob! More Springsteen to my ears. But the song itself has all the right dynamics for a great, folky protest sing. It would have gone down a storm in Greenwich Village in it's folky heyday. Great songwriting and another ultra-strong delivery. Superb stuff, and all the better for just being a guitar and a voice.

Holy crap, what a song. You are insanely good Trev.  I love this totally.  What a vocal.  I would pay good money to be able to sing with this much power and this well.
