another year has gone by so I am attempting another Dylan song in his honor. I would like your critical feedback as I hope to play this song at a Bob Dylan birthday night at a local bar. the bar has hosted the Dylan night for years and all are welcome to play one of his songs. you come in, sign up, get a slot and have at it. this will be my first time. it is the 24th, next saturday.
I love this song, but may end up doing another one. mainly because I will be solo and will not have additional instruments as I do on this offering.
I think the key of G is a bit hard for me to sing. I may have to down tune to Gflat. think so?
George Harrison has influenced the arrangement. I probably will get in trouble at soundclick because they do not allow covers w/o permission. oh well. we'll see how long it stays up.
so give me feedback on my voice. I know the arrangement needs fine tuning. I just wanted to get this out and posted here quickly.

no. I entered the wrong address. it is correct now as I just clicked the link and it is playing as I type.
Holy crap, Dog, this is excellent!
Crystal clear recording!
Beautiful guitaring! Three tracks in this one?
Excellent take on Dylan voice. You got the grit, the attitude, the inflections . . . everything.
I'm really, really, really impressed.
Congratulations
I'm kinda new here so I didn't know you were that good.
You caught me off guard.
It's the rock that gives the stream its music . . . and the stream that gives the rock its roll.

Here is to you as good as you are
And here is to me as bad as I am
As good as you are and as bad as I am
I'm as good as you are as bad as I am
I agree with you that maybe you should tune down from open G, as it sounds like your voice is straining in spots.
The guitars & slide sound great, but like you said, how are you going to pull that off live? Can you make an arrangment that you can play solo on the lap steel? I think that would be great. 8)
Good luck,
Dan

Dogbite, I was working and running these months and I missed some of your recordings. Now, I'm trying to update myself!
I agree with Dan and you, perhaps another key will be easier. But the sounds are great!
Thank you very much.
:D
I definately need to tune the guitar to E flat. then I should be able to relax my voice.
this has a few tracks. guitar, vocal, midi bass and two tracks of dobro so I could get that Harrison harmony.
I tried this on my lap steel. it is tuned to open G. I can't get it to work for a solo deal. that Am is impossible as a chord and that walk down with the Bm in it is , well, beyond my abilities.
thanks for the comments. they help.
i like it just the way it is.
it gives it a more "dylanesque" feel imho.
the Harrison vibe had heart as well
Booya! and a belated Happy B-day Bobby Z!
