Here's our band, The Hammer Daddies, covering SRV's classic. Recorded a while back at a local club using my H4N.

Wow, Helliot - sounds great all around! Nice take on the song and great guitar tone and playing.

 

[mrmudcat]

Yep I have to agree sounds good!!!

 

[helliott]

Thanks, tj and muddy. Glad you liked it.

 

[Spudman]

I really enjoyed that. Thanks for posting and playing it. :dude

 

[piebaldpython]

Great stuff......particularly the WAH solo around 2:30-ish

 

[helliott]

Thank you Spudman and piebaldpython. It's a fune one to play. Glad you enjoyed it.

 

[duhvoodooman]

Nicely done!! :dude

 

[Algonquin]

The Hammer Daddies do that tune justice Howie! I especially like the tempo on that one... right in the pocket!

Cheers,
David

 

[helliott]

Thanks DVM. David, I've found that tempo is huge in this song. Too fast and you lose the pocket and space, too slow and it lags badly. Glad we got it right in this version.

Nice cover, helliott!

 

[tjcurtin1]

Great stuff......particularly the WAH solo around 2:30-ish

Yeah, both solos are very good, but I too particularly liked the wah workout.

 

[helliott]

Thanks, marnold and tjcurtin. Me and my partner James take turns -- in this case the first solo is him, the second is me and the strat.

 

[Robert]

Well done! Digging that bro.

 

[kidsmoke]

sounds great! Got that scooped strat thing down.
