Title: Buddy Holly's "Everyday" Post by: the captain on June 15, 2008, 08:36:35 PM Saturday afternoon I was in a Buddy Holly mood and quickly recorded a version of his "Everyday" just for fun. I've posted it at http://myspace.com/thebeaumondes (http://myspace.com/thebeaumondes). I hope you stop over and have a listen.

Two mics, one above each, for one stereo track. The original is the same idea, but I don't know what they were slapping.

So first it was just one doot on the melody, but I got carried away a little.
