  House of rising sun, fingerpicked

This is a fingerpicked version of house of the rising sun, one track is pickin and singing, 2nd track is some short solo's in the middle and end. I like the way it came out and i'm rarely happy with my end product

I liked that, nice picking. You might want to bring the master level up a bit, i had to max out my mixer to get enough volume..

Or im just going deaf (most likely)

I'm sorry guys, i downloaded a free tuner and it screwed up my recording gear and doesn't work either now I can't use my mic boost option because it makes a high pitch noise, some kind of feed back, anyway I kicked up the gain and here is another upload, hope its louder

Tom, That was absolutely superb! The most polished song you posted to date. Did you sing and play at the same time? You didn't miss a lick. I'm impressed.

Way to go! It can be awful tricky to sing and play at the same time, and you sounded like a pro on this one.

Great effort Tom! Your version is slow and patient, and the subdued vocals match the timing of the song. Your version is so peaceful sounding, I think I'm now more inclined to visit that house of ill repute!

This is a very beautiful version of HoTRS.

Good job with the singing and picking at the same time. You've made it your own.
