Stoffeltoo

Stoffeltoo

guidothepimmp Absolutely love it and that you got the family involved, priceless!

guidothepimmp

Stoffeltoo thanks Stoffeltoo.. very kind of you

Yeti

Here's my contribution, a heavyish cover of Queen's Show Must Go On.
I recorded the vocals around two and a half years ago, when I performed it on stage in a pantomime but never did anything with it because the backing track I used was down 3 semis (I'm no Freddy) and got a little bubbly. So when the Ambitious challenge came up I thought it was the perfect opportunity to dust it off and build something to support them. I've tried to keep elements of the original while giving it a distinct flavour of my own.

Yeti Great vocals and exquisite guitar lead.
Not one of the easiest Queen tunes and really well produced and mixed.
I need to learn from the masters....?

guidothepimmp

Very good Bevan.. sounds great

studmissile

Dig the tongue 'n cheek, great blues playing guidothepimmp.

Queen? Wow! Talk about a tall order, very impressive Yeti

RCVN

This song was covered by about every blues artist since it was made popular by - The Legend - Louis Armstrong.

So I decided it was my turn to butcher it.

Enjoy ?

Stoffeltoo

RCVN Stunned! I never thought i'd hear such a rendition. Originafantasticalus!

guidothepimmp

Nice Ruan.. did you do the vocals? Love the sound. Has a clutch feel about it

RCVN

guidothepimmp Yeap, attempted singing and ended up chucking reverb and compression at it.

klaasvakie

OK guys, here we go:

I really wanted to play every instrument, but in the end I ran out of time and sampled the original track.

RCVN

klaasvakie This melted my cheese.

Stoffeltoo

klaasvakie Joh! Head bumping, butt thumping and air pumping. You had everything bopping in my man cave! Simply awesome and yeah, sometimes less is more.

Stoffeltoo

This comp with this level of entries is going to make voting extremely difficult ??

Yeti

Stoffeltoo my thoughts exactly

klaasvakie

Wow, just gave all the entries (so far) a good listen and I'm super impressed. There is so much to love in every track and I'm jealous of all your guys playing, singing as well as your recording chops. Some serious effort went into these, well done all.
