Erotic Nightmares - Steve Vai cover

There you go. Take a listen to it. Quite a fast take and I lost all of my imagination while recording. The middle part's quite dull and didn't do much of my own stuff in there.

The leads sound quite strange once in a while because it's mostly doubled and couldn't make 'em sound so right.

C'mon! 65 views and no comments. Is it that bad??? :-E

Nah, it's not that bad!! It's actually a pretty damned good effort

You just have to remember most people here these days hate Ibanez/Jems/Vai and everything associated

Great playing

Thanks! I'm quite happy with it, but there's still a lot of stuff missing. Didn't use a harmonist for harmonized stuff, found some record-clip that was accidentally shortened, too. And there should be something on the quiet part in the mid-end. Lack of imagination

And it's all in Eb tuning. Too bad I just took off all the strings from my Eb tuned Jem and will turn to standard E again.

That's the reason I chose a bit different song to be covered. Not the usual oh-my-goodness-that-for-the-love-of-god-cover

But thanks again! And more opinions are welcome!

Hey that kicks ass buddy. You deserve an award for the drum programming too. You've got some serious chops.

I actually took the drumtrack from a guitar pro file. Just changed the first "chorus" to double bass drumming. And didn't do anything for the dynamics. It's all the same velocity

I always had a problem with recording and programming drums.
