Check out my new youtube cover!

I'm covering "Valerie" by Amy Winehouse. I tried using some guitar technique to make it sound a little more interesting. Thanks!

Very nice--you have a great voice, and your playing ain't bad, either...

Just out of curiosity, did you add the echo, or is that room really "bouncy" and "live" sounding? I personally would have dialed the echo/reverb back a touch, but it sounded good and your performance was well-executed.

:!: Well done...and I could understand the lyrics...which is more than I could say when Amy sang it. :lol: The guitar lost some of its definition because of the room; didn't really cut thru, but you've got some skills. I'll give you an A+. :)

Very good, but it isn't a cover of Valerie by Amy Winehouse, its a cover of an Amy Winehouse cover of a Zutons song. 8)

Nice - i like the Come Together version you did more, though (even though it's a playback to pre-recorded material. 8) )

Great job and nice solo - you really made it your own.

Rock on!
