Beautiful In My Eyes
Beautiful In My Eyes Track number: 1 Year: 2010 Album: Cover Up's Genre: Cover/Tribute
Originally done by Joshua Kadison.

Dear Prudence
Dear Prudence Track number: 2 Year: 2011 Album: Cover Up's Genre: Cover/Tribute
I covered this because I always liked the song, not just because I'm a Beatles fan. I even went out and bought a Hofner bass just to record it.

Love
Love Track number: 3 Year: 2010 Album: Cover Up's Genre: Cover/Tribute
I always loved (no pun intended) this song from John Lennon. I wanted to record this song for the anniversary of his death this past December (2010), but when I started to record it something wasn't quite right. The way the song was coming out of me wasn't the way John recorded it. So I just decided to record what was in the air that day and this is what came out. A little different version, a little quicker and a different feel altogether. I recorded all the parts myself on my 32 track Korg digital recorder. Guitar, bass, piano and electric drums. Hope you all like it.

Sir Duke
Sir Duke Track number: 4 Year: 2010 Album: Cover Up's Genre: Cover/Tribute
This is an old Stevie Wonder song that was a tribute to Duke Ellington. I always like the horn section in it so I decided to make it a solo guitar song with a crunchy guitar sound. Great stuff! Alway's loved Stevie Wonder. Thanks Stevie!
