Probably in my top 10 favourite Tull songs, Broadford Bazaar written by Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull. My take on it, like Ian's just higher.

For anybody wondering the guitar is tuned down to Db.

I do not own this song or have any rights to it, however, I am not in any way trying to profit from the creation and publishing of this track... It's just a cover.

*This is a recording a made a good few years ago when I was only just starting out, I hadn't been playing guitar long either maybe a year? I hardly remember now. Well a mate lent me a microphone and told me to download a free copy of Cockos REAPER and that was me well away.

So it's the Counting Crows version anyway. I'm gonna try and re-record it now that I am a 'professional' musician. It will be interesting to hear the difference because I really didn't know my arse from my elbow when I did this. Enjoy!

*Very very rough experiment with a classic Stan Roger's track to see about putting multiple vocal takes together to get that 'fishermen's choir' thang going on.

Northwest Passage [Cover]*

My arrangement of Leonard Cohen's Tower of Song, great words great classic chord progression. It's based a bit on Tom Jones' version. Sorry it's a bit hissy but it's a rough demo and I still don't really know what I'm doing.

One of South Yorkshire's most talented local musicians - James Taplin performs with deep passion and often total abandon, captivating audiences large and small across the country.

James has little knowledge of modern marketing or networking and, finding self-promotion very uncomfortable, chooses instead to keep the tradition of the itinerant entertainer alive and well through frequent gigs and word-of-mouth. Whilst his musicianship is solid what keeps people coming back is the incredible tone of his singing. No other artist expels air with such commitment and emotion and there's a reason people call him 'The Voice'.

Playing a huge ensemble of hand-picked, left-field covers as well as a growing number of diverse and catchy originals, James is the embodiment of good-hearted music from his lion's mane to his sneaker feet.

Frontman of blues-rock outfit Smoking Beagles, James just wants to play and write great music, and the team of musicians he's assembled are similarly minded. The net result of all this love for the job means of course that they are a lot of fun, if a bit mischievous.

Lead vox/rhythm: JAMES TAPLIN; Lead guitar: TOM LOWBRIDGE; Keys/vox: GARY DRAKETT; Blues harp: MICK HOLMES; Bass: MATT McCORMACK; Drums: RICHARD STOTT.
