Wow, that’s a VERY different version of this tune. Way different than the way you did it previously, totally different than I’ve ever heard or than how I’d do it. But it totally works. I really dug this Bob…

Thanks Ray! I usually don't use any effects, but this time I twisted a few knobs on my DAW app without really understanding what I was doing

Sounds great Bob! Sounds like you’re using a similar combination of effects as on your last version of You Got Lucky. Whatever it is, it’s working for you.

Thank you, Joe. Here’s the best cover of that song I’ve ever heard. The only similarity to mine is that we’re playing in the same key, lol.

Thanks, Ray. I think I’m using compression, but I honestly am not sure. Anyway, I appreciate your kind words!

Noodling around with the latest guitar acquisition... sloppy playing and singing, but I don't care.

Man, that’s a song I’d never even consider doing with a solo acoustic guitar - wouldn’t have a clue how to approach it. But you make it work. Well done!
