My first cover post, comments welcome. I always loved this song, so I recorded this last night on my GNX3 around 1:30am after a couple of rum & cokes my wife was fixing.......never really learned the extended solo, just jamin'..couple of the clinkers in there, please be kind

Thanks, Draegon

Hey very nice one man! guitar was GREAT, but man, it´s a shame to listen to it with the midi stuff on the back, . Hey, this gives me an idea, I´m gonna try fix a BT after a midi for ya for this song lets see what comes up, ( it´s all just for fun, it just got me something to work on over now, lol). Typing this and still listening through 4:13, man I love this song!

I've got alot of respect for the Allman Bros. music and their lead guitar stylings. I think you pretty much hit the nail on the head in terms of capturing the tone and essence of that guitar style here... Very smooth sounding and melodic, with a rich tone. Keep up the good groovin' man.

Thanks for listening and the nice comments guys, I really appreciate it. I joined this board a couple of years ago and have always marveled at the amount of talent out there. I haven't done much home recording, still getting that hang of it, so I've been kind of shy about posting anything.
Please feel free to offer any comments, negative or positive.

Bleeding Pinky, if you come up with a better Jessica backing track that would be great. I searched the net for a decent track, but the midi was the best one I could find. I stripped it down to drums, bass, and keyboards and tweaked them a little.

I´m working on it with my acoustic . Acoustic guitar track is the one I´ll record over, (I think that´s the one that midi won´t do the job correctly), the rest of the midi tracks sound good with soundfonts. You´ll have a PM this next weekend for what comes up, . Awesome job on your guitar playing, sweet as hell!

Great stuff! I agree about the backing, so it'll be great to hear what you and BP can do together.

Been an ABB fan since the late '60's!!! Saw them many times...they played in Cincinnati (where I grew up) a lot!! Was even at a show that they recorded and released...."Live At The Ludlow Garage"

This is a killer cover!!! You nailed the Allman jam feel!!! And those harmonies are dead on!!! I have to agree about the backer but, your playing here is exceptional!!! Well done!!
