Title: Surfs Up Cover
Post by: dmcguire70 on June 24, 2012, 10:36:45 PM
I've done a cover of the DEMO version of surfs up.Its my first recording with me playing an instrument ,
in this case piano, so its a very very ordinary piano track.It was quite a rushed job with work and family commitments
 but I managed to get a bit of free time to put this all together.
Cheers!

Holy sh*t, if you wouldn't have told me that was you, I would have thought that was a rough demo take of Brian's. EXCELLENT job! You have the Pet Sounds/SMiLE Brian quality to your voice. I don't know that I've heard anyone else that even comes close.

I wanna hear you do Sherry She Needs Me - just sing it over the original 1965 backing track. It would be like having an "old" Brian version of it.

Yeah, what's to add that hasn't been said already.... You are the most convincing 'mid-60s Brian Wilson' soundalike there ever will be.  :)
