Sweet Home Chicago Ive only ever heard the blues brothers version of this. Nice to hear a downtempo version of it, you play this ridiculously well and you sing it damn well too. One of my favourite tunes off the blues brothers cd and you do it some serious justice. Massively impressed Check out my latest song called Resurrection of Life Final Mix! (w/ Loob, Rok41, Symphony101, Gadzooks)

I think that the BB 's version is superb.... but it needs the full Blues Band sound ....I looked around the room before I did this and I did not see a Blues Band ,just me old guitar and a harp....no brainer Thanks Neil Jarvo Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

Gruffly,gravelly and grindingly slow I feel is the way to go with this type of close to the bone and the spirit music. We learn all the time.Thanks Maurice. Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

Way to go Chris It's great to hear this song from you. First off, you are singing it and sound very good. Nice simple guitar, harp back track works great for the song. My one nit, is you've got a little too much reverb on the vocal, but other than that it works. Great throw my friend, I do love it and will be downloading it as soon as I'm done typing this.

Someone else has mentioned the reverb,not a problem,I can fix that with a different.....Just not sure ,they mentioned "plate"....this was "medium snare room" the names are no help whatsoever to me !! Thanks for dropping in Ed Cheers Chris Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

Thanks James thought I would try out this as I have great affection for the genre of Delta Blues....more atmospheric than Chicago (though I do love that style as well)Thanks for dropping in. Jarvo Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

I really worked on restraining the harp on this ,as a relative novice I think that I overwork it sometimes.This is hopefully close to the mark.Thanks for the input. Jarvo Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

Very well done I really like this old delta blues sound. I think the reverb in this is a tad odd. Not sure if you can change it, but I would try a plate reverb or something of that nature if you can. Very nice harp playing too. Enjoyed it! Check out my latest song called The Devil's Argument :P

| Jarvoid said 696 days ago (July 25th, 2011) | |

I will have a look at changing the reverb,"Plate" is on the cubase menu for reverb so should be no problemo....don't know what it means though ! Thanks for stopping and giving some input ,greatly appreciated.... Chris Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

Thanks for the comment....I have found that I prefer the Mississippi style Blues to the Chicago (electric) for p[laying and the Chicago for listening to....don't figure ! Jarv Check out my latest song called laundromat blues

Thanks for that... you know ,honestly this was so relaxed that I am amazed I did not fall asleep half way through.....I mess with this little piece a lot and use it as my warm up piece ...I think it has paid off dividends and should go in as a repertoire piece...Thanks Ms Munk.

Living in Chicago too I hear this song every time I go to Kingston Mines (a quite known blues bar) and got somehow tired of the typical uptempo Claptonian treatment. This is sooooo refreshing man. Love the way you recorded it, the sound of the room. Great harmonica! Check out my latest song called Everything

Thanks Bliiy ...I know what you mean about "uptempo Clapton treatment" ---in fact I think that is what I get annoyed with him for.....all his Blues are uptempo....I mean he is a super guitarist but sometimes slow and sensitive wins the day...I think that this song works either way but I seem to be the first to put a certain world weariness into the phrase "come on....." resignation and pissed off being is it to me my padowans .....lol Thanks for the great comment See you later...

2 thumbs up ... it almost sound authentic. All that's missing is the crackling of the old record. Way to lay down that harp. This is very real!
