Here is a blues version of Nobody's Fault But Mine. Had to slow my heart way down to get into the groove for this song. I added a little slide guitar as well to spice it up a little. Bud

G'day Buddy
I Just watched this with my morning coffee, I liked it a lot.
Nice work
great voice.
Cheers Scott

Hi Scott, Always good to hear from you, and glad you enjoyed this tune. Bud

Hey Buddy, it took me a while to give this upload the attention it deserves, but here I am.

To start, this is fine and dandy as is, musically and vocally I am impressed from here to the moon and hopefully with enough gas to get me back !
Good job !

The intro hit me reminiscent of Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine", but that's just a passing remark.

As usual, after throwing the flowers, now the pot

I'm wondering if your sound mix is overly "buttery", to the point that a certain "edge" and personality in your voice might be lost ?
Maybe for the same reason, a loss of high notes in the recording ?
Then again, maybe it's YouTube's compression fault ?

Whatever the reason, the end result might be that your delivery could possibly be more gutsy and emotional, less contemplative, at some spots ?
I do understand it is a contemplative tune ... BUT ...

I am also still perplexed by your videos ... are you a heavy set guy or much thinner ? Depends on which video !
I'm not even sure I'd recognize you in person if you didn't have earphones dangling from your ears !

Please keep on trying, young man

Pierre, Glad you enjoyed this rendition and thanks for the input. You Keep asking about my build so here is a picture for you to clear things up. I am the one on the right and my son is on the left.

buddy, thanks for being a good sport in response to my frivolous comment ...
I'll bet it was -30 Celsius here in Quebec when you guys posed for this photo down there in cowboy land

This was a little different Buddy, but excellent! Don't have much to comment on really. I really liked the second guitar part using the slide, for me that made all the difference to the song.
vocals great.

Good job!

Always enjoy watching you play and sing.

Kevin
May be something more up beat next time??

No Problems Pierre, I have come to appreciate your unique sense of humor.
