I'm on the rest.
Lead guitar is the Kramer into a drive into a Harmonious Monk into a Valve Jr. cranked to about 7 into an attenuator and a Fender 4x12 cab.

@eyesquash @punishmenthurts Seconded! This is wonderful. What a great vibe and execution. The lead and rhythm guitars compliment each other nicely, and I can understand all the lyrics! For years I didnā€™t know some of the words Stevie Nicks was singing.

@NigelTufnel Thank you very much, man! I appreciate the appreciation! :)
Your new mic setup looks killer. I'm just using a Berhringer SM57 clone.

itā€™s completely different, right? I remember the song as a sort of a ragtime picking deal, like Aliceā€™s Restaurant.

I think thatā€™s how it was on the radio and Iā€™m sure thatā€™s how he played it when I saw him in Whitehorse, with only a guy on bass with him. I donā€™t remember the smooth lead all the way through like in whatā€™s the Van Morrison tune, Wavelength, wow!
.
Very cool. šŸ‘

@punishmenthurts Thanks!
Yes, my version's from memory, and I just felt like playing a lot of fuzz lead, so I put that in. And I strummed because I cant really finger-pick yet.

I only went and listened to the original after I recorded it. Just as you say, finger-picking, Alice's Restaurant style, and in the key of E, rather than G, where I put it.

oh wow, you work without refreshing your memory too??!?

If I go back and listen to the pro version, I tend to give up and never try. šŸ’œ

A great result, well done. šŸ‘

@punishmenthurts I hear you - I can't do a convincing cover, so I do a garage version. AND often, I like to play to the memory of a song rather than a recording, because I want to share what's in my head, rather than the real thing.

Same. Sometimes Iā€™ll take liberties with lyrics, like I love the Stonesā€™ Worried About You, but I canā€™t sing, ā€œI guess you know by now, that youā€™re not the only one,ā€ I ainā€™t Mick, I sing something about my habit, my bong instead. šŸ˜€
