Been working on the Hendrix tune, 1983 A Meman I should turn to be.

Quite a challenge and lots of work.

Just put my Strat back together with a new Black perloid pickguard and then I used the Strat on this tune.
Hopefully the tone is more to the liking of the vintage guys. :)

I am singing this one, cover the pets ears.

Bah...singing's not too bad man. My cat kept sleeping through it just fine. ;)
But really, great job. I love this tune.

I've never heard this song before so I can't compare it to the original but i thought it was well done. Your vocals where very good. Must have been a bear mixing all the tracks. Nicely done though.

5 and a half minutes - and I listened all the way through without doing anything else!

Excellent.
Can you play "Far Far Away?"

Yes - how far would you like?

you've always manage to coax the 'good' kind of bright tone from your gtr. Really nice on the ears.

If Pink Floyd is doing a come back, you can fill in for Mr. Gilmore - on vocals AND guitar.

Always a pleasure to hear your stuff :)
