My Martin MMV recorded on an iphone 4.

Lots of great Shakey covers posted recently. You won't confuse this one with any of those :-)

Loosely inspired by Nils Lofgren's cover of this great Neil Young tune. From "The Loner" album Nils did of all Neil covers a while back.

I'm quoting myself above and reviving an old thread to boot

I've been doing Roger Love's vocal exercises pretty faithfully for 6 out of the last 7 weeks. Most every weekday for at least 15-30 minutes. I'm getting better at them. My range is improving. The tone and timbre doesn't sound any different to me, but singing has gotten easier.

Here is the same song I recorded at the beginning of the thread, done today, the "after" version. I did tune down a half step this time:
