Description:
This is a song written by Lafayette (Patrick) doing a cover on "A Horse with No Name" by America. I never really heard that song so this is my take on how it would sound if I had that track.
I really tried to work it with the harmonies. ;-)
I got carried away and started to whistle too. woo hoo!!!
Special thanks to Illuminator and Becwil for mastering the production on this piece. We all know I'm lost in that regard!
Hope you enjoy!
-Linda
p.s. The numbers are the routes I take to drive from NY to Boston. I drive fast you know ;-)

harmony overload . . . &mdash 11/27/06 - 09:09:57 PM
. . .there were times that I couldn't process all the harmonies. I don't like the acoustic guitar plugged direct, but in context they work pretty well. I totally hear the America cover . . .I like the effect of the route numbers and the speeds. [ Reply to This ]
thank you! &mdash 11/27/06 - 10:12:17 PM
Thank you for the honest feedback. I am waaay into harmonies. I guess it's a reminder for me to slow down with them. I don't know i just couldn't picture the song without them! Anyway, thanks a bunch! [ Reply to This ]
thanks for stoppin by &mdash 11/27/06 - 11:32:46 PM
I like your song. I'm not a real judge of folk rock. But I did do sells for a CD manufacturing company for 7 years, so that makes my ability to hear crap pretty accurate. I look forward to checking out more.
Thanks again for stopping by. [ Reply to This ]

I like the spin you do with a horse with no name. I can feel the singing in some parts. Your voice in some of the harmonies realy shine. You must have gotten into it, Great job [ Reply to This ]
sweet &mdash 11/28/06 - 04:04:57 PM
Good voice with good choices of harmony. Maybe a tad to often as mentioned by others;)
Nice with the whistling for variation.
Good guitar playing. The driving bass makes me move my feet:)

stop &mdash 11/29/06 - 04:07:10 AM
Don't like the sound of that guitar... but the rest of the song is great so as the vocals and the lyrics... The production is tight.... [ Reply to This ]
very cool, two versions.... &mdash 12/03/06 - 05:56:41 PM
to certain song's. My roomate at CMSU in Missouri played the original, you do your own version very sweetly,(nice harmonies/almost Shannon Hoonish(Blind Melon sound),Hope to hear more soon-MJG [ Reply to This ]
NICE VOICE &mdash 12/04/06 - 09:50:35 PM
The guitar is a little weak but your voice sounds great! Why are you singing ove Horse with no name? Why didn't he play something original! Just curious! [ Reply to This ]
thick harmony! &mdash 01/03/07 - 02:01:49 AM
I love the thick harmonies--not too much for me. I agree that the guitar sounds like it was plugged in direct. Its got that fizzy, plastic-like Fishman undersaddle sound. Can't stand 'em even though I've got 'em in two of my guitars. Try using a condenser mic pointed at the lower bout of the guitar.
I'm a harmony freak, too! Check out an old post of mine at
