Me And The Devil Blues

Post by drockadam »

Hey Everyone! :wave:

Hope all of your holidays are going well :D :peace:

A couple of weeks ago, a Los Angeles voice over actor and I collaborated on Robert Johnson's Me And The Devil Blues. I released it, with a vintage and clean versions. Please check it out! :lol:

Great re-creation. Good work by the two of you. :clap:

Funny how the ear expects to hear the lower quality crackle and hiss recording for Robert Johnson, so that the "Vintage" version sounds so right! :D

Thank you! The vintage version is cool. I got a message on YouTube saying that Robert Johnson would appreciate this cover very much.

That's some nice work man. That's a tough song to sing and play for me. (like most of his work lol)

Very Nice!! :clap:
I particularly like the "Vintage" version. Must be my old ears.
Very good playing, and the singer did a good job too.

Great playing, great singing. :pray:

For a more vintage sound you need to speed it up a few percent... :big_smile:
