The Universe & If I Go, I’m Goin - Gregory Alan Isakov; Johson Blvd by Amos Lee

Gave this one another go. That Bbmaj7/F chord not giving me as much trouble as it used to.

Hi

I’m not too familiar with the original artist, apart from a song he did in the TV show Californication: that was If i’m Go I’m Goin’ - really great tune.

Anyway, this sounded very good. Vocal was very strong.

Thanks Stephen. That’s funny that you’re familiar with If I Go I’m Goin. That’s the only other GAI song I’ve recorded.

Another one by Gregory Alan Isakov

That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing that great song. You have a great voice for it too. Your sound mix of voice with guitar was spot on, that is, one wasn’t louder than the other. They complemented one another extremely well. Keep up the great work. It’s an inspiration to all of us.

Hello Jay :slightly_smiling_face:

:clap: :clap: :clap:

Two great performances of two beautiful songs I haven’t known before.
I enjoyed them a lot! Great singing and playing, strumming and dynamics.
And I love the sound of that beautiful guitar :guitar:

Thanks a lot for sharing :sunflower:

Jay, remember the policy to create one topic in AVOYP per month in which you can have multiple recordings added a replies.

Oh - didn’t know that. Thanks for combining them .

Jay,

I love these covers! Especially Johnson Boulevard… I am a big Amos Lee fan & think your version does him justice! Nice job!

Hi Jay,

Nice job on If I Go. Your vocal gives it a Johnny Cash feel.

I didn’t know about the 1 thread per month either - though these days my threads are about 1 per 6 months. Lol.
