Excellent!

This is fantastic!
Very impressive work, and amazing how close the bass and keyboard sounds are to the original.

Thanks very much. If I was re-recording the bass I would do it with a little more overdrive. It was the first thing I recorded other than the drum program and it's really difficult to judge how much drive is needed outside the context of the other instruments. Pretty satisfied, though.

Yeah this is very good. Always time for another forums tribute "album" if we get enough takers

Cheers, Jim. Well, I'm scratching an itch now, and the Raven is definitely on the cards. If somebody was to take on the organising I'd be happy to contribute.

Awesome. Very close to the original.

Did you really sing the backing vocals as it sounds very close to how Dave sounds. That was really good actually i wish i could be that talented with music it must have been very rewarding to be able to produce that sounding so good.

I enjoyed that thanks a lot

Wow! Fantastic.

Thanks, yes I did. I wish I'd done a better job on the lead vocal, I struggled a bit on the low notes because my voice has aged and fallen into disuse somewhat. I'm going to practise for a week or so, then revisit it.

Don't be too harsh on yourself, there's only one Hugh Cornwell.
