My version of The Weight by The Band. I have always loved this song and this band, fantastic musicians, such an eclectic assembly of wonderful artists. What drew me to this song on TG was learning the intro, I had never been able to get it right, I hope I got it right now, thanks to Neil! Been working on it for about 3 or 4 weeks now. This is the first time I tried recording it. I'm now realizing that it's a little fast, always happens when the camera comes on I over dubbed a couple of harmony vocal backing tracks otherwise the audio is live from the mic and guitar pick-up.
Thanks,
The Weight - D_Dog

Hey Dog, that's the stuff. Really, really nice. The harmony backup was so very professional and I admire your ability to hit those high notes. I did a video once that I didn't quite finish, in your case I don't think it detracted at all. If anything I think it added to the charm of your video. Great effort, I loved it. So did Brad the Brit!
It seems that song was written just for you. Your singing was great, and you hit those notes perfectly. As for the guitar, it didn't seem fast to me at all, and those barre chords are not a problem for you in the least. Very well done.
