Troubles
by Alicia Keys
Wow. What an instrument you have there! I don't know the original and didn't want to hear it after listening to you. I'm in awe of your abilities. You definately have a great future in front of you!
02-Nancy G
In My Room
by Brian Wilson
Ok, I admit that it took me probably 3 listens to get it. I'm not a big folkie kinda guy. I love the original. But after a little sinking in this the version I'll remember. It's haunting. Great guitar playing and vocals! I love the reworking of the chord structure. Excellent!
03-Markus
Lullaby
by Tom Waits
Ok, I admit it. I'm a huge Waits fan. I almost submitted my version of The Piano Has Been Drinking. Incredible work. I got chills when the two part kicked in. I've probably listened a half dozen times. Thanks!
05-Iggy
Deramer
by The Beatles
Good job Ig. Good playing vocals. My only complaint is that it's a little too dead on to the original. I'd like to hear more Iggy and less Ozzy. Otherwise excellent job!
06-Solpig
Buona Sera
by Louis Prima
short, sweet and killer. I'm very impressed. You got it right!
07-Kris S
Wonderwall
by Oasis
Very nice rendition. Great sound on the acoustic. Love your voice. Just different enough from the original to call your own. Good job!
08-Tim W
Nowhere man
by The Beatles
Ok, I'm going to Florida next week to see my two best friends that also play guitar and bass. We're gonna party and play this one! Nuff said! Only real difference is if it was recorded I'm sure we'll have some farts and burps recorded. I want to hang with you guys!

Happier Than the Morning Sun
by Stevie Wonder
Outstanding! I'd write more but I don't want you to get a big head!
10-EED (Emily)
Every Rose Has Its Thorn
by Poison
haven't been able to wipe the grin off my face off my face after hearing this. Love the picking. Accordians rock. Thanks for the smile!
11-David T
Day Tripper
by John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Very nice rendition. Love the guitar work. I especially like the panning in the mix. Good job!
12-Dave C
Autumn Leaves
by Joseph Kosma & Jacques Prévert
I'm a sucker for Chords and Melody. That's how I learned how to play guitar so I can so appreciate what you do. I learned this same song probably 30 years ago. The tremelo kicks. Very Clean. Thanks for the memories!
13-Hoaby
Just A Little
by The Beau Brummels
one of few songs I've heard I'm not familiar with...In the tradition of Bandstand I'd have to say it has a great beat and it's easy to dance to! I'd give it a solid 8.5 Dick...
14-Todd
Joker
by Steve Miller
I love it. Your arrangement and production are very cool. Made me pick up my guitar and play it. That's a high compliment! The word is pompitous! great slide work!
15-Meikow

by The Beatles
