Incredible.  But I wish she made the electric bass a little louder in the mix. 

There she goes again! Another truly fantastic cover, Rach. Hearing is truly believing...

I LOVE this song! Rachel, where can I find you playing Karn Evil 9 on piano? 

Soooo good Rachel!! Like everything you do do!

Rachel never does things by half. This is as close to the original as you can get, now I've got goosebumps! Thanks Rachel, you're amazing!

Maravillosa Interpretacion! Fascinante Rachel Flowers.

I recorded this just for fun about a year ago (mid 2014). That's me playing all the instruments and doing all the vocals. The nylon string guitar and jazz bass are recorded direct. Drums and percussion were played using the Garritan Jazz and Big Band library.

Bet you didn't know I was a DeadHead!

I learned this song off of the Abbey Road album. I played all the guitars first, using the Marblehead Imperial guitar played through my Vox amplifier. I think I did the bass next. The organ was played on the Nord Electro 4D. The "white noise" sound was done on the Yamaha M06 and I did all the vocals using the Lewitt microphone. (I also recorded the guitar tracks using the Lewitt mic.) The drums were Session Drummer, Funk Kit. 

I listened to Abbey Road with my headphones one day, and then I started to hear myself covering this song.

Covers

I Want You (She's So Heavy)- The Beatles (cover)

I had fun covering this song. To commemerate the anniversary of the Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper, I thought it would be great for me to share this cover with you!
The orchestral tracks were played using the Garritan Instant Orchestra library. The guitar part was played on one of my electric guitars using an acoustic amp setting on the Vox miced with the Lewitt microphone. The bass was my fretted jazz bass played through the Line 6 bass pod. The main piano was the Nord Velvet Grand, and the final chord was a combination of Garritan CFX, Synthogy Ivory Tack Upright and Nord Honkytonk (tack also) Upright. The drums are VSL Jazz Drums. I don't remember if the vocals were done on the Lewitt, or what shaker I used.
I hope you enjoy it.
