Candy's Gone Bad

[BushmasterM4]

This is a cover of a cover. Original was done by Golden Earing. A band called The Godz did a cover. I never heard the original, but I have the album The Godz put out that included the cover. I was going through all my old albums and said to myself it would be fun to do. So here it is. As usual I struggle with the drums and vocals. Let me know how it sounds. I always try and play a mix on all my stuff before posting but didnt this one. Click the link below to start the tune. The intro is kind of cool and I recorded it kind of hot so turn down your speakers.

I do that all the time ! Covering covers !

Kind of fun and you learn how to record.

I had a chance to listen on my home system and pc speakers. I raised the vocals and right quitar track. Still sucks but it is more even.

I put the intro back to its original length. I like it that way. I redid the drums to get them more out front (was pointed out to me they were lacking ). They are better now, but alot of the fidelity is lost during the coversion to the 128 mp3 format. The original mix sounds pretty good on my vintage stereo system. I think it came out ok for what I have to work with. My live room needs to be treated. So I dont have the best acoustics. I'll get to that this spring. Also I worked on the Bass guitar. And got rid of the double tracked vocals. Its no where professional, but I dont have professional recording equipment. And Im a jack of all trades (instruments), master of none.

...but I have the album The Godz put out ...

I have that album too

That cover was pretty good - Under The Table is my fave tune from that album.

I have three I want to do of theirs and Under the Table is one. 714 is the other. Thanks for the listen
