Open mic week 64 cover of "The Breakup Song"
Hello, steemians, and welcome to da studio, eh!
This is my entry for open mic week 64. This is a cover of "The Breakup Song" by the Greg Kihn Band.
I recorded the guitar track on my reel to reel deck, and then played to that. This was more difficult than I expected it to be because of the stops in the chorus. With no drum track, the timing was tricky and I didn't always hit it right. I did a bunch of takes trying to get it right, and this take was about the best one that I got.
I need to get a cheap drum machine to use for this kind of performance.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my performance!
Check out the shows on MSP Waves on the PALnet. They have a show, "Steemit Musicians", that covers the judges choices for the open mic contest.
