Hey people, here's a cover of John Fogerty's track "The Old Man Down The Road".
I decided to record this because this is one of the songs that I do in the covers band I play guitar in (and do vocals on some songs including this one). The mixing of the guitars on this is as close as possible to the original recording; there are at least four guitar tracks I could hear throughout the original track:
- The two call and response tracks from the intro that continue throughout
- The more jangly track playing low muted chords, which also plays the second half of the lead breaks
- The guitar playing the first half of the lead breaks
