This is my first attempt at covering For Fiona by No Use for a Name - Don't be too harsh :p. I plan on re-doing this in a key that is more suited to my voice. This was way too high. Also I think some of the words are wrong, ha.

I recorded the guitar with a 58 up the neck a little (45 to the soundhole) and using the internal pickup. Each channel is panned out a bit which gave the guitar a fuller sound and it widened the mix out nicely. 

RIP Tony Sly.

For Fiona (Originally by No Use for a Name)

Here's a track by Tony Sly, still experimenting with the vocals.

I recorded the guitar the same way as I did in For Fiona, this time I tried 2 high vocals to add width to the chorus. Not sure about the final phrase of the chorus where I take it up a bit but I'll let you be the critic.

Still got a little bit of robot vocals but working on that :p

RIP Tony Sly.

Already Won (Originally by Tony Sly)

It has been a few weeks... mainly cause of Christmas and it has been too damn hot to record!!

Just got back from Christmas and decided it was a good time to lay some tracks. Did not expect to get this far in one sitting..

Anyhow comment, like/hate, enjoy!

When the War is Over (Originally by Cold Chisel)

This is my first experiment with a melodica. Didn't really focus on the lyrics a hell of a lot so they are average. Cheers for listening!
